Sura Al-Mu'min from 8 to 16


8. « Our Lord! And make them enter the ‘Adn ( Eden ) Paradise ( everlasting Gardens ) which you have promised them - and to the righteous among their fathers, their wives, and their offspring! Verily, You are the All- Mighty, the All- Wise.»
9. « And save them from ( the punishment, for what they did of ) the sins, and whomsoever You save from ( the punishment for what he did of ) the sins ( i.e. pardon him ) that Day, him verily, You have taken into mercy. » And that is the supreme success.
10. Those who disbelieve will be addressed ( at the time of entering the Fire ) : « Allâh’s aversion was greater towards you ( in the worldly life when you used to reject the Faith ) than your aversion towards one another ( now in the Fire of Hell, as you are now enemies to one another ) , when you were called to the Faith but you used to refuse. »
11. They will say: « Our Lord! You have made us to die twice ( i.e. we were dead in the loins of our fathers and dead after our life in this world ) , and You have given us life twice ( i.e. life when we were born and life when we are Resurrected ) ! Now we confess our sins, then is there any way to get out ( of the Fire ) ? » ( Tafsir Al- Qurtubi, )
12. ( It will be said ) : « This is because, when Allâh Alone was invoked ( in worship ) you disbelieved ( denied ) , but when partners were joined to Him, you believed! So the judgement is only with Allâh, the Most High, the Most Great! [ 1 ] »
13. It is He Who shows you His Ayât ( proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc. ) and sends down ( rain with which grows ) provision for you from the sky. And none remembers but those who turn ( to Allâh in obedience and ) in repentance ( by begging His Pardon and by worshipping and obeying Him Alone and none else ) .
14. So, call you ( O Muhammad ( saas ) and the believers ) upon ( or invoke ) Allâh making ( your ) worship pure for Him ( Alone ) ( by worshipping none but Him and by doing religious deeds sincerely for Allâh’s sake only and not to show off and not to set up rivals with Him in worship ) , however much the disbelievers ( in the Oneness of Allâh ) may hate ( it ) .
15. ( He is Allâh ) Owner of High Ranks and Degrees, the Owner of the Throne. He sends the revelation by His Command to any of His slaves He wills, that he ( the person who receives revelation ) may warn ( men ) of the Day of Mutual Meeting ( i.e. the Day of Resurrection ) .
16. The Day when they will ( all ) come out, nothing of them will be hidden from Allâh. Whose is the kingdom this Day? ( Allâh Himself will reply to His Question ) : It is Allâh’s the One, the Irresistible!

[1] (V.40:12) Narrated ‘Abdullâh (raa): "The Prophet (saas) said one statement and I said another. The Prophet (saas) said: "Whoever dies while still invoking anything other than Allâh as a rival to Allâh, will enter Hell (Fire)." And I said, ‘Whoever dies without invoking anything as a rival to Allâh, will enter Paradise.’" (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol. 6, Hadith No. 24).
