Surat Hud (119-120)

{إِلاَّ مَن رَّحِمَ رَبُّكَ وَلِذَلِكَ خَلَقَهُمْ وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَةُ رَبِّكَ لأَمْلأنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ} (هود : 119)

119- Except those whom Allah granted guidance to the Straight Way and the correct religion who did not differ in creed. Allah only created them different so as everyone would bear his own responsibility of his choice and be rewarded or punished for that.

At-Tabary reported from Ibn `Abbas his saying: Allah created them as two groups: A group was given mercy, so they did not differ among themselves, and another that was not given mercy, so they differed and this is the meaning of Allah's Saying: "Some among them will be wretched and (others) blessed." [Surat Hud: 105].

So, the people of mercy do not differ, and if they differ, they shall not differ as others in their hatred and difference. Al Hasan Al Basry (may Allah bestow mercy on his soul) said: The people who are given mercy from their Lord do not differ to the extent to harm one another.

This is the way by which the command of Allah was done, and His Wisdom decreed that Hell-Fire are filled by disbelievers who are different from the people of the truth, and Paradise shall be filled by believers who follow the truth from Jinn and people.

{وَكُـلاًّ نَّقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنبَاء الرُّسُلِ مَا نُثَبِّتُ بِهِ فُؤَادَكَ وَجَاءكَ فِي هَـذِهِ الْحَقُّ وَمَوْعِظَةٌ وَذِكْرَى لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ} (هود : 120)

120- We narrate to you all you need of previous Messengers' news and stories. We narrate to you the news of those who believed in them and those who denied them, and the destruction of those who denied so that your heart would have more certainty, tranquility, and firmness to deliver the message and endure the harm of disbelievers like previous Messengers. In this Surah, the truth came to you from your Lord [i.e., the news, the stories, and so on] so that the believers would take heed, the disbelievers would be deterred, and all people learn a lesson.
