Then they will take retribution from one another for the wrongs that took place between them in the world. Until, when they have been purified and cleansed of every defect, they will be given permission to enter Paradise. By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad (saw), each one of them will know his own abode in Paradise better than he knew his dwelling in the world.” And Yunus bin Muhammad also said that Shaiban told us, narrating from Qatadah, that Abul Mutawakkil told us the same.

Musa bin Isma'il told us. Hammam narrated to us that he said: Qatadah told me, narrating from Safwan bin Muhriz Mazini. He used to say: Once I was walking along with Hazrat (Abdullah) bin Umar (ra), holding his hand, when a man came from in front and said: What have you heard from the Messenger of Allah (saw) about the Najwa (the confidential talk)? He replied: I heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) say: “Allah will bring the believer so near that He will cast the shade of His mercy over him and cover him, and will ask: Do you know such-and-such sin? Do you know such-and-such sin? He will say: O my Lord, yes. Until, when He has made him confess all his sins and that believer thinks in his heart that he is ruined, Allah, the Exalted, will say: I covered these sins of yours in the world, and today too I cover them for you. Then the book of his good deeds will be given to him. And as for those who are disbelievers and hypocrites, all the witnesses will say: ‘These are they who lied against their Lord.’ Now surely, the curse of Allah is on the unjust.” (Qur’an 11:19)
