Tafheem ul Quran

Surah 39 Az-Zumar, Ayat 73-74

وَسِيۡقَ الَّذِيۡنَ اتَّقَوۡا رَبَّهُمۡ اِلَى الۡجَـنَّةِ زُمَرًا​ؕ حَتّٰٓى اِذَا جَآءُوۡهَا وَفُتِحَتۡ اَبۡوَابُهَا وَقَالَ لَهُمۡ خَزَنَتُهَا سَلٰمٌ عَلَيۡكُمۡ طِبۡتُمۡ فَادۡخُلُوۡهَا خٰلِدِيۡنَ‏ ﴿39:73﴾ وَقَالُوا الۡحَمۡدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِىۡ صَدَقَنَا وَعۡدَهٗ وَاَوۡرَثَنَا الۡاَرۡضَ نَتَبَوَّاُ مِنَ الۡجَـنَّةِ حَيۡثُ نَشَآءُ ​ۚ فَنِعۡمَ اَجۡرُ الۡعٰمِلِيۡنَ‏ ﴿39:74﴾

(39:73) And those who eschewed disobeying their Lord shall be driven in companies to Paradise so that when they arrive there its gates will have already been thrown open and its keepers shall say to them: “Peace be upon you; you have done well. So enter. Herein you shall abide.” (39:74) They will say: “All thanks and praise be to Allah Who has made His promise to us come true, and Who gave us the earth to inherit.82 We may now dwell in Paradise wherever we please.”83 How excellent is the reward of those who laboured!84


Notes

82. For explanation, see (Surah Ta Ha, Ayats 106-107,124); (Surah Al-Anbiya, Ayats 106-107 )and the E.Ns thereof.

83. That is, the Paradise which has been granted to each of us, is now our property and we possess full rights over it.

84. Maybe this is said by the dwellers of Paradise, or maybe this sentence is added by Allah to what the dwellers of Paradise will say.
