Sura 10
Aya 26
26
۞ لِلَّذينَ أَحسَنُوا الحُسنىٰ وَزِيادَةٌ ۖ وَلا يَرهَقُ وُجوهَهُم قَتَرٌ وَلا ذِلَّةٌ ۚ أُولٰئِكَ أَصحابُ الجَنَّةِ ۖ هُم فيها خالِدونَ

Yusuf Ali

To those who do right is a goodly (reward)- Yea, more (than in measure)!1 No darkness nor shame shall cover their faces!2 they are companions of the garden; they will abide therein (for aye)!
  • The reward of the righteous will be far more than in proportion to their merits. For they will have the supreme bliss of being near to God, and “seeing His face”. (R).
  • The face is the symbol of the Personality, the inner and real Self, which is the antithesis of the outer and ephemeral Self. It will be illuminated with God’s Light, behind which is no shadow or darkness. All its old shortcomings will be blotted out, with their sense of shame, for there will be Perfection, as in God’s sight.
