Tafsir

And for each group - the group of Paradise and the group of the fire - are ranks according to their actions. The ranks of the people of Paradise are high ranks, whilst the ranks of the people of the fire are low ranks. And so that Allah gives them the full reward of their actions, and they will not be oppressed on the day of judgment by their good deeds being decreased or their bad deeds being increased.
