Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (And those who believed and whose offspring followed them in faith)

Then He, the Exalted, said:
And those who believed and whose descendants followed them in faith - We will join with them their descendantsوَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَاتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ بِإِيمَانٍ أَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ
[Surat al-Tur: 21] Those who believed and whose offspring followed them in faith; the offspring whose faith is derivative are the young ones,So Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:
We will join with them their descendantsأَلْحَقْنَا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ
[Surat al-Tur: 21] meaning: We joined their offspring to them in their ranks.
As for the adults who have married, they are independent in their ranks in Paradise; they are not joined to their fathers, because they have offspring and are in their own station. As for the young offspring who follow their fathers, they are raised to the level of their fathers. This raising does not necessitate a reduction in the reward and ranks of the fathers,And for this he said:
and We will not deprive them of anything of their deedsوَمَا أَلَتْنَاهُمْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ
[Surat al-Tur: 21] (We did not diminish them) means: We did not reduce them,Meaning: [in that] their offspring are joined to them, and it is not said that the ranks of the fathers are deducted from by the amount by which the ranks of the offspring were raised,Rather, he says:
and We will not deprive them of anything of their deedsوَمَا أَلَتْنَاهُمْ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ
[At-Tur 52:21]
.
Every person, for what he earned, is retained.كُلُّ امْرِئٍ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ
[Surat al-Tur: 21] This is a general rule for all workers: that each one is held responsible for his own deed, and nothing is deducted from him. As for the increase, it is a favor from Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) upon whomever He wills of His servants.
