Among the benefits of this noble verse is the high rank of the believers who do righteous deeds, as indicated by His saying: . The reference here is to something distant, which is due to the highness of their rank. This is similar to His saying: [al-Baqarah:2], even though the Book is before us, He referred to it with a distant reference due to its high rank.
Among the benefits of this noble verse is that in faith and righteous deeds, one attains what is desired and what is disliked is removed, as indicated by His saying:. This is the removal of what is disliked. This is the attainment of what is desired. Know that when Allah the Exalted forgives you, He opens for you the doors of knowledge and your chest expands with faith, for that which causes the chest to constrict and the mind to scatter is sins. [al-Mutaffifin:13]. Look, he does not know the value of the Qur'an; when the Qur'an is recited to him, he says, “The tales of the ancients,” so he does not know its value. Why? [al-Mutaffifin:14]. Because what they used to earn has covered their hearts, so, may Allah protect us, he does not see this great Qur'an as anything but what? But the tales of the ancients. For this reason, some scholars said: “It is recommended for one upon whom a matter descends and he seeks its ruling, whether this matter is specific to him or he is responsible for it, that he should seek forgiveness from Allah.” They cited as evidence for this His saying: [al-Nisa:105]. What comes after that? [al-Nisa:106]. And this is not far-fetched. So, among the benefits of faith and righteous deeds is the attainment of what is desired and safety from what is disliked.
Among the benefits of this noble verse is also that the provision of Paradise is a noble provision, meaning it is vast, abundant, permanent, and good. Evidence for this is His saying: [al-Sajdah:17] and His saying: [al-Waqi'ah 32:33].
