Tafseer of Surah Al-Waqi’ah 20. And with fruits, any that they may select: 21. And the flesh of fowls, any that they may desire. 22. And (there will be) Companions with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes, Cf. 44:54. The companionship of Beauty and Grace is one of the highest pleasures of life. In this bodily life it takes bodily form. In the higher life it takes a higher form. 23. Like unto Pearls well-guarded. Cf. 52:24, where this description is applied to the youths who serve. In 56:78 below the adjective Maknun is applied to the Qur'an, "the well-guarded Book". 24. A Reward for the deeds of their past (life). 25. Not frivolity will they hear therein, nor any taint of ill, Cf. 52:23. Apart from the physical ills, worldly feasts or delights are apt to suffer from vein or frivolous discourse, idle boasting, foolish flattery, or phrases pointed with secret venom or moral mischief. The negation of these from spiritual Bliss follows as a matter of course, but it is specially insisted on to guard against the perversities of human nature, which likes to read ill into the best that can be put in words. 26. Only the saying, "Peace! Peace". Qil is best translated as "saying", rather than "word". For the saying is an act, a thought, a fact, which may be embodied in a word, but which goes far beyond the word. The "Peace of Allah" is an atmosphere which sums up Heaven even better than "Bliss”.
Hadith الحدیث
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH)said, "A person will be summoned with the one whom he loves".
[Al-Bukhari Book 08, Chapter 73, Hadith # 191].
Another narration is: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) was asked; "What about a person who loves a people but cannot be with them?'' (i.e., either he cannot attain their lofty position of righteousness or that he has not met with them in this life). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) replied, "A person will be in the company of those whom he loves".
Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Waqi’ah Ayat 24. A reward for what they used to do” Besides bringing to eminence the high merit of entertaining the love for the pious persons, this Hadith tells us about the Mercy and Blessings of Allah which He will shower upon those who love the pious people. Because of this love, Allah will elevate even the inferior people and include them among those whom He loves. This Hadith also serves a warning that association and love with the impious people is extremely dangerous as one can meet the same bad end which is inevitable for them. May Allah save us from it.
