Transliteration:( Ayatma'u kullum ri'im minhum anyyudkhala jannata Na'eem )
🔹 This verse was revealed about those disbelievers who would sit in the court of the Prophet ﷺ, staring at him and mocking the poor believers.
🔹 They would arrogantly claim that if the poor Muslims would enter Paradise, then they too deserved Paradise.
🔹 They also mocked the blessed teachings of the Prophet ﷺ and ridiculed his message.
🔹 They assumed that worldly status would determine one’s place in the Hereafter.
🔹 In reality, Paradise is only for those who have faith (Iman) and do righteous deeds, not for those who deny the truth.
🔹 Wealth and status in this world do not guarantee entry into Paradise—only faith and obedience to Allah (اللَّهُ ) do.
The tafsir of Surah Al-Ma’arij verse 38 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Maarij ayat 36 which provides the complete commentary from verse 36 through 44.
(70:38) Does everyone of them wish to enter the Garden of Bliss?[25]
25. It means that God’s Paradise is only for those righteous people whose characteristics have just been described above, Now, can these people who are not at all inclined to listen to the truth and who are rushing in towards the Prophet (peace be upon him) in order to suppress every invitation to the truth, be the candidates for Paradise? Has God prepared His Paradise only for such people as these. Here, one should also keep in view – verses 34-41 of Surah Al-Qalam – in which an answer has been given to this saying of the disbelievers of Makkah: Even if there is any life after death, we shall have good time there too, as we are having in the world, and the torment would befall Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his followers and not us.
