Q 1: What is
the explanation of Allah’s Saying (meanings of which are translated as),
Surah Maryam, 19:
71
There is not one of you but will pass over it (Hell): this is with your Lord; a Decree which must be accomplished.
Surah Maryam, 19:
72
Then We shall save those who used to fear Allâh
A:
Allah (Exalted be He) explains to His servants that all people; whether pious or impious, shall pass over the Sirat (the bridge) that is set across Hellfire. |

It is out of Divine Justice, Wisdom, Grace and Mercy that Allah has prescribed this passage and made it binding upon Himself; therefore, this is a matter already decreed and inevitable. Allah (Exalted be He) then saves from Hellfire whoever has feared Him in worldly life and did the divinely ordained acts of obedience and avoided all the forbidden sinful acts and wrong deeds. As to the wrongdoers, they will be left in Hellfire, crammed together, humbled to their knees, as an exact recompense because they denied and mocked the Ayahs of Allah (Exalted be He).
