The ruling on one who has never done any good in the hadith

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, it is mentioned in the hadith that
Allah, Mighty and Majestic, brings out of the Fire those whoالله عز وجل يخرج من النار من
has never done any good. The question is: Is this to be understood in the sense of the submerging of the rivers? By the power of Allah, He, Glorified and Exalted is He, can make whatever He wills, especially since the Muslim is merely the testimony. So every fear is unfounded, and there is no disagreement on the hadith.

Answer:
The disbeliever has no hope of Paradise. The disbeliever and the one who associates partners with Allah are forbidden from Paradise by Allah, and their abode is the Fire. This is the ruling of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. But as for those who are brought out of the Fire who have not done any good, it was not said that they did not believe; it was said that they did not do good. Deeds are one thing, and faith in the heart is another. So these people have faith, but they were not able to perform deeds. For example, if someone testifies that there is no god but Allah, and then dies immediately, he becomes a believer, but he has not done deeds because he was not able to perform them. If he says, "I testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah," and then dies right away, he becomes one of the people of Paradise, even though he has not done much good, because his end was faith. This is the intended meaning of the hadith. As for one who does not have faith, he is one of the people of the Fire, with no hope of Paradise. Yes.

Question:
Your friend. The hadith.

Answer:
No, it is not evidence, because abandoning prayer does not make one a disbeliever. Abandoning prayer is being able to act but not acting; abandoning prayer intentionally is being able to act but not acting. The discussion is about a person who struggled against disbelief and died in that state. This person enters Paradise because he had faith, was ruled to be a believer, and died before he was able to act. Yes.
