Study Notes:
2. Verses 27
to 30 constitute the divine welcome address to those who have successfully
passed the lifelong test of this world.
3. The Qur’aan speaks of two other sorts of
souls: nafsa la-ammarah, soul prone
to evil [Verse 12:53], and, nafsil-lawwamah,
self-reproaching soul [Verse 75:2]. The soul, apparently, has to graduate to
its third stage of nafs almut-mainnah
to deserve the divine welcome.
