Tafsir Ibn Kathir

Verse range: 40:48

Open in Qurani

قال الذين استكبروا إنا كل فيها

Those who were arrogant will say: "We are all (together) in this (Fire)!...'' meaning, `we will not bear any part of your burden for you; our own punishment is enough for us to bear.'

إن الله قد حكم بين العباد

Verily, Allah has judged (His) servants! means, `He has shared out the punishment among us according to what each of us deserves'. This is like the Ayah:

قال لكل ضعف ولكن ﻻ تعلمون

He will say: "For each one there is double (torment), but you know not.'' (7:38)

وقال الذين في النار لخزنة جهنم ادعوا ربكم يخفف عنا يوما من العذاب
