Verse16

(16) مَنْ يُصْرَفْ عَنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَقَدْ رَحِمَهُ وَ ذلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْمُبِينُ

16. " Whoever is spared of it (the Divine retribution) on that Day, He has certainly been merciful to him, and that is the manifest triumph."


Commentary :
The Messenger of Allah (p.b.u.h.) once said: " By Allah in Whose hand is my soul, no one of people may enter into Paradise (merely) by his own deed." They asked him : " Even you, O' Messenger of Allah ? " The Prophet (p.b.u.h.) answered: " Even I, unless Allah shelters me with His mercy and grace."
Then, the holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.) put his hands on his head and recited the above-mentioned verse. (Tafsir Nur-uth-Thaqalayn, vol. 1, P. 706; and Majma'-ul-Bayan)
" Whoever is spared of it (the Divine retribution) on that Day, He has certainly been merciful to him, and that is the manifest triumph."
Everybody is threatened to fall in danger. Saving from the Divine punishment demands a particular grace from the side of Allah.
However, prosperity can be gained only in the light of security from His Wrath.
