The Difference Between al-Mukhlasin and al-Mukhlasin

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In His saying, the Exalted:
Except, among them, Your chosen servants."إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
[Al-Hijr 15:40]
with the lam opened (fathah) instead of being kasrah, he asks: What is the reason for that? And is there a difference between them?

Answer:
As for al-Mukhlasin, Allah purified them; Allah purified them. And al-Mukhlasin are those who purified their deeds for Allah from shirk (associating partners with Allah) and from riya' (showing off in worship). Yes.
