Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: In what the author (may Allah have mercy on him) transmitted from Ibn 'Abbas regarding his statement, "Rejoice, O 'Abd Allah, of Paradise after the retribution," is the intended meaning...
Answer:
Yes, after the retribution. Because some people are given glad tidings of Paradise absolutely, and that is the believer whose faith is complete. And among them are those who are given glad tidings of Paradise after punishment, and that is the one who committed a major sin. The one who committed a major sin that is less than shirk (associating partners with Allah). This person may be punished in the Fire, but his ultimate destination is Paradise. Yes.
