Hud (Hud)

119. “Except those on whom your Lord has Mercy; and for that (mercy) did He create them. And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled: ‘Certainly I will fill Hell with jinn and the mankind together’.”

In this verse the Qur’an indicates that the people disagree with each other in their acceptance of the Truth except those upon whom is Allah’s Mercy.

The verse says:

“Except those on whom your Lord has Mercy;...”

However, this Divine blessing is not confined to a certain group, but all humankind can benefit from it if they want.

Those who wish to come under Allah’s favor will find an open gate for His all inclusive Mercy and Grace which are made available to mankind through their own reasoning, the guidance of the prophets, and heavenly Books which have been revealed to them.

The verse says:

“…and for that (mercy) did He create them. And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled:...”

Once they utilize these favors and blessings the gates of Paradise and eternal bliss will be opened for them, otherwise, the command of Allah has been issued that He will fill Hell with the disobedient and arrogant ones from among the Jinn and men.

The verse continues saying:

“…‘Certainly I will fill Hell with jinn and the mankind together’.”
