Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (Nay, but the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyyun)]

Allah the Exalted said:
No! Indeed, the record of the righteous is in 'illiyyun.كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْأَبْرَارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ
[Al-Mutaffifin:18] In this verse, Allah (Mighty and Majestic) informs with a confirmed statement using (in) because (in) in the Arabic language is one of the tools of emphasis,So if you say: "The man is standing," so this is an unconfirmed statement,And if you say: "Inna al-rajula qaim" (Indeed, the man is standing), it becomes a confirmed statement,So Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:
Indeed, the record of the righteous is in 'illiyyun.إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْأَبْرَارِ لَفِي عِلِّيِّينَ
[Al-Mutaffifin:18] And this is the counterpart to His saying:
Indeed, the record of the wicked is in sijjeen.إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْفُجَّارِ لَفِي سِجِّينٍ
[Al-Mutaffifin:7] So the record of the wicked is in Sijjin in the lowest part of the earth, and the record of the righteous is in 'Illiyyun in the highest part of Paradise,Meaning: that they are in this high place, and that was written with Allah (Mighty and Majestic) before He created the heavens and the earth by fifty thousand years
And what makes you know what 'Illiyyun is?وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا عِلِّيُّونَ
[Al-Mutaffifin:19] meaning: What makes you know what 'Illiyyun is? And this interrogation is intended for magnification and glorification,Meaning: meaning whatever makes you know it, it is great.
