What is the interpretation of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (And none of you but will pass over it)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Hello, peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace.

The questioner : O Shaykh, he says: Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said:
And there is none of you except he will come to it. This is upon your Lord an inevitability decreed.مِّنكُمْ إِلَّا وَارِدُهَا كَانَ عَلَىٰ رَبِّكَ حَتْمًا مَّقْضِيًّا
[Maryam 19:71]
.

The Shaykh : And none of you.

The questioner :
And there is none of you except he will come to it. This is upon your Lord an inevitability decreed.وَإِن مِّنكُمْ إِلَّا وَارِدُهَا كَانَ عَلَىٰ رَبِّكَ حَتْمًا مَّقْضِيًّا
[Maryam 19:71]
Does this mean that the prophets, the messengers, the martyrs, and the righteous will pass over it?

The Shaykh : The scholars differed on the meaning of the verse. Some said: "Except its entry," meaning except entering into it.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : Did you understand? And some said: The intended meaning of "passing over" is crossing the Sirat, and crossing the Sirat is something through which everyone passes, the prophets and other than the prophets. Did you understand?

The questioner : Yes, yes.

The Shaykh : Yes. And if you wish for more, refer to Ibn Kathir's tafsir on this.

The questioner : Yes. May Allah forgive you, O Shaykh. Now, peace be upon you, peace and the mercy of Allah.
