Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about the saying of Allah, Mighty and Majestic:
but they will not cease to differ. (119) Except whom your Lord has given mercyوَلَا يَزَالُونَ مُخْتَلِفِينَ إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ رَبُّكَ
[Hud 11:118-119]
.

Answer:
Yes, and otherwise, "whom your Lord wills" means that they did not differ. So, disagreement is a punishment, while agreement and unity upon the truth is mercy.
Except whom your Lord has given mercyإِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ رَبُّكَ
[Hud 11:119]
This means that they did not differ, but rather they took the path of truth and agreed upon it. This is the mercy. Yes.
