Surah Al-Mutaffifeen Ayat 35 Tafsir (Commentry)

24. It means the inmates of Paradise would be seeing the infidels from the comfort of their thrones and laugh at them. This will be in retaliation for their laughter at the believers in the world.

From this emerge two issues:

1. The inmate of Paradise will have no liking for the inmate of Hell, nor feel compassion for him. The father in Paradise will not cry at seeing his infidel son in Hell, but instead will rejoice at it.

2. That Paradise is above the seven heavens and Hell is below the seven regions of the earth, which is millions of miles deep. Despite this distance, the inmates of Paradise will be seeing everything thereof while sitting on their beds.

Thus, if the Holy Prophet ﷺ is seeing the entire world from the comfort of the blessed Green Dome, then what is wrong with that?
