The Correct Interpretation of the Verse on Eternal Abode in the Fire

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And the Shaykh said: What is the correct interpretation of the verse that the stories told her indicate that the others are capable of Hell?

Answer:
We say it is a temporary abode, not a permanent one. The abode is of two types: a permanent abode, which is for the disbelievers, and a temporary abode, which means a long duration of staying and remaining in the Fire. This is for the sinners among the monotheists, or for some of the sinners among the monotheists. So the abode here is not the permanent abode, as evidenced by the authentic hadith that Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, will say on the Day of Resurrection: "Take out of the Fire whoever has in his heart the least weight of a mustard seed of faith." So no one will have a permanent abode in it except the disbelievers.
