Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (On that Day, no one will be punished with His punishment)]

Allah the Exalted said:
So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment,فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لا يُعَذَّبُ عَذَابَهُ أَحَدٌ
[al-Fajr:25] *
And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers].وَلا يُوثَقُ وَثَاقَهُ أَحَدٌ
[al-Fajr:26] because they, may Allah protect us, are bound:
Then into a chain whose length is seventy cubits insert him."ثُمَّ فِي سِلْسِلَةٍ ذَرْعُهَا سَبْعُونَ ذِرَاعاً فَاسْلُكُوهُ
[al-Haqqah:32] meaning: put them in this chain, so their hands are shackled, we ask Allah for safety, and no one can imagine now the misery, wretchedness, and punishment they are in, and by Allah, sometimes a person wishes he had not been created out of fear of the Fire,'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: [I wish my mother had not given birth to me, I wish I were a tree that is cut down] because a person does not know first of all what his current state is! Is he on the right path or on the wrong path? Is there showing off in his worship? Is there religious innovation in his worship? Then he also does not know—and this is more dangerous—He does not know with what he will be concluded: (A man may do the deeds of the people of Paradise until there is only an arm's length between him and it, when the decree overtakes him, and he does the deeds of the people of the Fire, and enters it) who is safe at death from being turned away and led astray,And Satan comes to him and says: I am your father, leave Islam, O my son, and be a Christian or a Jew? Because some people, may Allah protect us, are tested at death, and the religions are presented to them,And he is told: choose Christianity, or choose Judaism, and turn away from Islam.

And for this reason we say: And we seek refuge in You from the trial of life and death.
So who is safe?! I ask Allah to make my ending and yours good! So: a person must prepare.
He will say, "Oh, I wish I had sent ahead [some good] for my life."يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي قَدَّمْتُ لِحَيَاتِي
[al-Fajr:24] *
So on that Day, none will punish [as severely] as His punishment,فَيَوْمَئِذٍ لا يُعَذَّبُ عَذَابَهُ أَحَدٌ
[al-Fajr:25] *
And none will bind [as severely] as His binding [of the evildoers].وَلا يُوثَقُ وَثَاقَهُ أَحَدٌ
[al-Fajr:26] .
