The fifth: It has been established that he will enter the paradise who is created for it in the hereafter (1), and he enters it who entered the hellfire first (2). The children enter it by the deeds of the fathers (3). It is established that the paradise enters it who did not do good deeds, and as for the hellfire, there is no one punished for his sins, and this should not be compared to this.
السَّادِسُ:The sixth:أَنَّthatالْجَنَّةَthe paradiseمِنْis fromمُقَتَضَىthe requirement ofرَحْمَتِهِHis mercyوَمَغْفِرَتِهِ،and His forgiveness,وَالنَّارَand the hellfireمِنْis fromعَذَابِهِ،His punishment,وَقَدْand indeedقَالَ:He said: {نَبِّئْ{InformعِبَادِيMy servantsأَنِّيthat Iأَنَاamالْغَفُورُthe Forgivingالرَّحِيمُthe Mercifulوَأَنَّand thatعَذَابِيMy punishmentهُوَisالْعَذَابُthe punishmentالْأَلِيمُ}the painful."} (4) **وَقَالَ:And He said: {اعْلَمُوا{KnowأَنَّthatاللَّـهَAllahشَدِيدُis Severeالْعِقَابِin punishmentوَأَنَّand thatاللَّـهَAllahغَفُورٌis Forgivingرَحِيمٌ}and Merciful."} (5) **وَقَالَ:And He said: {رَبَّكَ{Your Lordلَسَرِيعُis indeed Swiftالْعِقَابِin punishmentوَإِنَّهُand indeed Heلَغَفُورٌis Forgivingرَحِيمٌ}and Merciful."} (6) **فَالنَّعِيمُSo the blissمِنْis fromمَوْجَبِthe need ofأَسْمَائِهِHis namesالَّتِيwhichهِيَareمِنْfromلَوَازِمِwhat is inherent inذَاتِهِHis essenceفَيَجِبُTherefore, it is a mustدَوَامُهَاto maintain itبِدَوَامِwith the permanence ofمَعَانِيthe meaningsأَسْمَائِهِof His namesوَصِفَاتِهِ.and His attributes.
The sixth: The paradise is from the requirement of His mercy and forgiveness, and the hellfire is from His punishment. It has been said: {Inform My servants that I am the Forgiving, the Merciful; and that My punishment is the painful." } (4). And He said: {Know that Allah is Severe in punishment and that Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." } (5). And He said: {Your Lord is indeed Swift in punishment and He is Forgiving, Merciful." } (6). So the bliss is from the requirement of His names which are inherent in His essence, thus it must be sustained by the permanence of the meanings of His names and attributes. The punishment, however, is from His creations, and the creature may have an end like the world and others, especially if the created is connected to something else.
وَأَمَّاAnd as forالْعَذَابِthe punishment,,فَإِنَّمَاit is onlyهُوَit isمِنْfromمَخْلُوقَاتِهِ،His creations,وَالْمَخْلُوقُand the createdقَدْmayيَكُونَexistلَهُto himانْتِهَاءٌan endingمِثْلَlikeالدُّنْيَاthe worldly lifeوَغَيْرِهَا،and others,لَا سِيَّمَاespeciallyمَخْلُوقٌthe creationخُلِقَcreatedتَتَعَلَّقُis concernedبِغَيْرِهِ.with others.
And as for the punishment, it is only from His creations, and the created may have an end like the worldly life and others, especially if the created has connections to others.
