16
“Their greeting on the Day they meet Him will be, ‘Peace,’ and He has prepared for them a noble reward.”
As for His mercy toward them in the Hereafter, it is mercy in its most sublime form and the finest of rewards: attaining their Lord’s good pleasure and His greeting, hearing His majestic speech, beholding His beautiful Face, and receiving the immense reward whose true nature no one knows or comprehends except the One who grants it to them. Hence He says: “Their greeting on the Day they meet Him will be, ‘Peace,’ and He has prepared for them a noble reward.”
﴿تَحِيَّتُهُمْ يَوْمَ يَلْقَوْنَهُ سَلامٌ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا كَرِيمًا﴾ .
وأما رحمته بهم في الآخرة، فأجل رحمة، وأفضل ثواب، وهو الفوز برضا ربهم، وتحيته، واستماع كلامه الجليل، ورؤية وجهه الجميل، وحصول الأجر الكبير، الذي لا يدري ولا يعرف كنهه، إلا من أعطاهم إياه، ولهذا قال: ﴿تَحِيَّتُهُمْ يَوْمَ يَلْقَوْنَهُ سَلامٌ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا كَرِيمًا﴾
