Tafsir

Allah will say to Jesus (peace be with him) that the Day of Rising is a day on which the truthfulness of those who were true in their intentions, statements and actions will be of benefit to them. They will receive gardens with palaces and trees overlooking flowing streams, in which they will live eternally, with death never coming to them. Allah will be pleased with them and will never become angry with them. They will pleased with Allah because of the everlasting delight they have received. Such reward and pleasure is the supreme success, which cannot be equalled by any other.

Read Ibn Kathir (Ibn Kathir (abridged, English))

Allah will say: "This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth: Theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise) – they shall abide therein forever. Allah is pleased with them and they with Him. That is the great success (119)To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, and He is able to do all things (120) Only Truth will be of Benefit on the Day of Resurrection Allah answers His servant and Messenger 'Isa, son of Maryam, after he disowns the disbelieving Christians who lied about Allah and His Messenger, and when 'Isa refers their end to the will of his Lord, هَٰذَا يَوْمُ يَنفَعُ الصَّادِقِينَ صِدْقُهُمْ (This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth.) Ad-Dahhak said that Ibn 'Abbas commented, "This is the Day when Tawhid will benefit those who believed in it." لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا (Theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise) – they shall abide therein forever.) and they will never be removed from it, رَّضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ (Allah is pleased with them and they with Him.) وَرِضْوَانٌ مِّنَ اللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ (But the greatest bliss is the good pleasure of Allah.)[9:72] We will mention the Hadiths about this Ayah [9:72] later on. Allah's statement, ذَٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ (That is the great success.) means, this is the great success, other than which there is no greater success. Allah said in another Ayat, لِمِثْلِ هَٰذَا فَلْيَعْمَلِ الْعَامِلُونَ (For the like of this let the workers work.)[37:61], and, وَفِي ذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَتَنَافَسِ الْمُتَنَافِسُونَ (And for this let (all) those strive who want to strive.)[83:26] Allah's statement, لِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا فِيهِنَّ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ (To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, and He is able to do all things.) means, He created everything, owns everything, controls the affairs of everything and is able to do all things. Therefore, everything and everyone are in His domain and under His power and will. There is none like Him, nor is there rival, ancestor, son, or wife for Him, nor a lord or god besides Him. Ibn Wahb said that he heard Huyay bin 'Abdullah saying that Abu 'Abdur-Rahman Al-Habli said that 'Abdullah bin 'Amr said, "The last revealed Surah was Surat Al-Ma'idah."
