Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Please explain to us, may Allah reward you, what al-Bukhari narrated in his Sahih from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: "The people of Paradise will enter Paradise, and the people of the Fire will enter the Fire. Then Allah the Exalted will say: 'Take out whoever had in his heart[Al-Anbya 21:47] of faith.' Sahih al-Bukhari 22"
Answer:
Yes, this is an example of the believers who have sins for which they deserve to be punished in the Fire to purify and cleanse them from their sins and disobedience. They enter the Fire if Allah wills it, and they are punished therein according to the measure of their sins, but they do not remain in it forever. They are punished therein according to the measure of their sins, then they are brought out of it like charcoal and thrown into the River of Life, a river called the River of Life at the gate of Paradise. Their bodies grow, and their souls return to them, and they are then permitted to enter Paradise. This is for the sinners among the monotheists who have earned entry into the Fire, so Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He,
punishes them therein according to the measure of their sins to purify them, then they are brought out of the Fire and thrown out, emerging like charcoal that has burned and crumbled. They are thrown into the River of Life, and their bodies grow and develop, their souls return to them, and they are in the best form. They are then permitted to enter Paradise. Yes.
The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you and reward you.

the weight of a mustard seed
مِثْقَالَ حَبَّةٍ مِّنْ خَرْدَلٍSo they will be taken out but (by then) they will be blackened (charred). Then they will be put in the river of Haya' (rain) or Hayat (life) (the Narrator is in doubt as to which is the right term), and they will revive like a grain that grows near the bank of a flood channel. Don't you see that it comes out yellow and twisted
