39. 1. Despite the acceptance of the supplication, Allah did not settle them again in Paradise, but instead instructed them to seek Paradise while remaining in this world, and through Hazrat Adam (علیہ السلام), the path to Paradise is being shown to all the children of Adam. That through the Prophets (علیہم السلام), My guidance (the rules and regulations for living life) will reach you; whoever accepts it will be deserving of Paradise, and otherwise will be subject to the punishment of Allah. "There will be no fear upon them" relates to the Hereafter. "ای فیما یستقبلونہ من امر الاخرۃ" and "nor will they grieve" relates to the world. "علی ما فاتھم من امورالدنیا" (what has passed from the matters of the world or what they have left behind in the world), just as in another place is the verse (فَمَنِ اتَّبَعَ هُدَايَ فَلَا يَضِلُّ وَلَا يَشْقٰي) 20:259. Whoever follows My guidance, then he will neither go astray (in the world) nor be miserable (in the Hereafter). Ibn Kathir. Thus, the status of verse (لَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا ھُمْ يَحْزَنُوْنَ) 10:62 is attained by every true believer; it is not a status that is only for some of the friends of Allah, and then the meaning of the status is also given a certain meaning. Whereas all believers and the pious are also the friends of Allah. The friends of Allah are not a separate creation. However, there can be differences in the ranks among the friends.

But those who deny and reject Our signs [58], they are the people of the Fire, and they will remain in it forever.

[58]
Re-entry into Paradise:

At the same time, it was clarified that guidance (revelation) from Me will continue to come to mankind, and those who act according to it will have no grief or sorrow, and they will inherit that Paradise from which Adam and others were expelled. However, those who deny Our revelation and befriend Satan will be cast into Hell forever.
