﴿وَبَيْنَهُمَا حِجَابٌ ۚ وَعَلَى الْأَعْرَافِ رِجَالٌ يَعْرِفُونَ كُلًّا بِسِيمَاهُمْ ۚ وَنَادَوْا أَصْحَابَ الْجَنَّةِ أَن سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ ۚ لَمْ يَدْخُلُوهَا وَهُمْ يَطْمَعُونَ﴾
[ الأعراف: 46]
7:46 And between them will be a partition, and on [its] elevations are men who recognize all by their mark. And they call out to the companions of Paradise, "Peace be upon you." They have not [yet] entered it, but they long intensely.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishBetween these two groups – the companions of Paradise and the companions of Hell – is a partition called ‘al-A‘rāf’, meaning ‘the Heights’.
On this partition are people whose good and bad actions are equal.
They know the companions of Paradise by their signs, such as the light on their faces, and the companions of Hell by their signs, such as the darkness on their faces.
These people of the partition call the companions of Paradise, honouring them, saying, ‘Peace be upon you’.
They do not enter Paradise yet, but they hope to enter it through Allah’s mercy.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And between them will be a barrier screen and on Al-A'raf (a wall with elevated places) will be men (whose good and evil deeds would be equal in scale), who would recognise all (of the Paradise and Hell people), by their marks (the dwellers of Paradise by their white faces and the dwellers of Hell by their black faces), they will call out to the dwellers of Paradise, "Salamun 'Alaikum" (peace be on you), and at that time they (men on Al-A'raf) will not yet have entered it (Paradise), but they will hope to enter (it) with certainty.

Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And between them will be a (barrier) screen and on Al-A`raf will be men, who would recognize all, by their marks. And they will call out to the dwellers of Paradise, "Peace be on you" and at that time they will not yet have entered it (Paradise), but they will hope to enter (it).

ان دونوں گروہوں کے درمیان ایک اوٹ حائل ہوگی جس کی بلندیوں (اعراف) پر کچھ اور لوگ ہوں گے یہ ہر ایک کو اس کے قیافہ سے پہچانیں گے اور جنت والوں سے پکار کر کہیں گے کہ "سلامتی ہو تم پر" یہ لوگ جنت میں داخل تو نہیں ہوئے مگر اس کے امیدوار ہونگے
