verse119-120

(119) قالَ اللَّهُ هذا يَوْمُ يَنْفَعُ الصَّادِقِينَ صِدْقُهُمْ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِنْ تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهارُ

خالِدِينَ فِيها أَبَداً رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَ رَضُوا عَنْهُ ذلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ

(120) لِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ وَ ما فِيهِنَّ وَ هُوَ عَلى‏ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ قَدِيرٌ

119. " Allah said: ' This is the day when shall benefit the truthful ones their truth. For them there are gardens beneath which rivers flow wherein shall they abide forever. Allah is well-pleased with them and they are well-pleased with Him. This is the great success."
120. " To Allah belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and whatever is in them, and He is All-Powerful over all things."

Commentary :
Following the explanation mentioned about the talk of Allah with Jesus, the content of this verse refers to the words of Allah after that talk and it says:
" Allah said: ' This is the day when shall benefit the truthful ones their truth. ..."
Then, concerning the reward of the truthful ones, the Qur'an says as follows:
"... For them there are gardens beneath which rivers flow wherein shall they abide forever. ..."
More significant than that blessing, which is of the material examples, there is this blessing that:
"... Allah is well-pleased with them and they are well-pleased with Him. ..."
And, there is no doubt that this great merit, which is inclusive of material and spiritual merits, is counted the great salvation. The verse continues saying:
"... This is the great success."

In the second verse, it points to the possession and sovereignty of Allah, when it says:
" To Allah belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and whatever is in them, and He is All-Powerful over all things."
