The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah bless you, when we spoke about crossing the Sirat, we said that only the believers cross it.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : His saying, Exalted is He, regarding the hypocrites:
Wait for us that we may acquire some of your light انظرونا نقتبس من نوركم
[Al-Hadid 57:13]
Some mention that when the believers come to cross the Sirat, the hypocrites come with them. So do these people cross with them and then fall into Hellfire, or are they prevented from crossing in the first place?

The Shaykh : Read the verse, my brother, read the verse, complete the verse.

The questioner :
Wait for us that we may acquire some of your light." It will be said, "Go back behind you انظرونا نقتبس من نوركم قيل ارجعوا وراءكم
[Al-Hadid 57:13]


The Shaykh : Complete it.

They say, "Our Lord, complete for us our light and forgive us. Our Lord, indeed You, what?"

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : By Allah, it annoyed me twice, just that.
On the Day you see the believing men and believing women, their light proceeding before them and on their right, [it will be said], "Your good tidings today are [of] gardens beneath which rivers flow يوم ترى المؤمنين والمؤمنات يسعى نورهم بين أيديهم وبأيمانهم بشراكم اليوم جنات تجري من تحتها الأنهار

This is on the plain of the Resurrection, and for this reason He said:
And a wall will be placed between them ضرب بينهم بسور
