fa-ʾammā lladhīna ʾāmanū wa-ʿamilū ṣ-ṣāliḥāti fa-yudkhiluhum rabbuhum fī raḥmatihī dhālika huwa l-fawzu l-mubīnu
As for those who have faith and do righteous deeds, their Lord will admit them into His mercy. That is the manifest success!
— Ali Quli Qarai
Surah al-Jathiya - Verse 30
30. Then as for those who believed [in God] and did righteous good deeds, their lord shall admit them to His Mercy. That shall be the evident deliverance.
The word fawz used in this Verse denotes triumph and attainment of good together with security and fulfillment of wish. In the Holy Qur’an, the word collocates with evident (mubin) and great (‘adim, kabir). Instead of “They enter Paradise” (yadkhuluna fial-janna), it is said:
“Their lord shall admit them to His Mercy” (yudkhiluhum rabbuhum fi rahmatihi)
denoting that the believers and the beneficent enjoy Divine Grace and Mercy. Following an expression of the fact that everyone shall be recompensed according to the record of his deeds, the Verse in question says that the deeds of the believers and the beneficent shall be assayed following which their lord shall admit them to His Infinite Mercy. Indubitably, this is felicity, merit, deliverance, and the final purpose of mankind rather that of all creatures created for the sake of mankind. It is through the creation of such perfect man that the Divine attribute of Mercy is manifested without which the existence of the world became non-existent.
The Divine Tradition:
“Had it been not for your sake, I would have not created celestial spheres”
is addressed to Prophet Muhammad (S), since the perfect man is the final purpose of the existence of the world.
