His statement ( ذَلِكَ يَوْمُ الْخُلُودِ ) (that is the Day of eternal abiding): He says: this, the description of which I have given you, O people, concerning My admitting into the paradise whomever I admit — that is the day on which the people enter the paradise, abiding therein unto infinity.
As Bishr related to us, he said: Yazīd related to us, he said: Saʿīd related to us, on the authority of Qatāda ( ذَلِكَ يَوْمُ الْخُلُودِ ) (that is the Day of eternal abiding): they abided therein — by Allah — eternally, so that they do not die; and they remained therein, so that they do not depart; and they enjoyed bliss, so that they do not fall into misery.
