Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: Regarding His saying, the Exalted:
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.لَا يَصْلَاهَا إِلَّا الْأَشْقَى
[Al-Layl 92:15]
and His saying:
But the righteous one will avoid it -وَسَيُجَنَّبُهَا الْأَتْقَى
[Al-Layl 92:17]
, is the comparative form here in its proper grammatical form? Or is the intended meaning

Answer:
Yes, indeed, there is no doubt. The more one increases in taqwa (mindfulness of Allah), the more good and reward increase, and the more one increases in wretchedness, the more punishment increases. Yes.
