Verse 101

Table of Contents

    101. “Verily those for whom the good (promise) has already gone forth from Us, they will be kept far off from it (Hell).”

    This holy verse reiterates the qualities of the true believers, as well as the believing men and women in order to compare them with each other and specify the situation of both of them.

    At first, it says:

    “Verily those for whom the good (promise) has already gone forth from Us, they will be kept far off from it (Hell).”

    This meaning refers to the fact that Allah will fulfill all of the promises that He has promised the true believers in the life of this world, one of which is keeping them far off the Fire of the Hell.

    In Tafsir-ul-Burhan, according to some narrations, there have been recorded a tradition from Imam Sadiq (as) who said:

    “The objective of the word /husna/, mentioned in the above verse, is Amir-ul-Mu’mineen Ali (as) and Ahl-ul-Bayt (as) and the followers of him.”1
