Verses 30-35 GROUP_1386 50.30-35

30
يَوْمَ نَقُولُ لِجَهَنَّمَ هَلِ امْتَلَأْتِ وَتَقُولُ هَلْ مِن مَّزِيدٍ
On that Day, We shall ask Hell, ‘Are you now full?’ Hell will answer, ‘Are there any more?’
31
وَأُزْلِفَتِ الْجَنَّةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ
Paradise will be brought near to the righteous and will no longer be far away.
32
هَذَا مَا تُوعَدُونَ لِكُلِّ أَوَّابٍ حَفِيظٍ
This is what you were promised—this is for everyone who often turned to God and kept Him in mind,
33
مَنْ خَشِيَ الرَّحْمَن بِالْغَيْبِ وَجَاء بِقَلْبٍ مُّنِيبٍ
who fears the Compassionate One, though He is unseen, and comes to Him with a penitent heart;
34
ادْخُلُوهَا بِسَلَامٍ ذَلِكَ يَوْمُ الْخُلُودِ
so enter it in peace. This is the Day of everlasting life.
35
لَهُم مَّا يَشَاؤُونَ فِيهَا وَلَدَيْنَا مَزِيدٌ
There they shall have all that they desire, and there is even more with Us.

Commentary

(a) Who are entitled to the eternal Paradise of God? They are the people who, in this world, went in constant fear of God’s punishment. Those who were afraid before they actually came face to face with their Maker will be the ones who will be safe from fear and grief on that Day, whereas others who knew no fear will be terror-struck. Fear of God creates heavenly attributes in man, while a lack of fear creates the attributes of Hell.
