The Reward of the Righteous &the Sinners Allah informs of what the righteous will receive of delight

They are those who obeyed Allah and did not meet Him with disobedience (sins). Then He mentions that the evildoers will be in Hell and eternal torment. Due to this He says,

يَصْلَوْنَهَا يَوْمَ الدِّينِ

(Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,) meaning, the Day of Reckoning, Recompense, and Judgement.

وَمَا هُمَ عَنْهَا بِغَآئِبِينَ

(And they will not be absent therefrom.) meaning, they will not be absent for even one hour from the torment. The torment will not be lightened from them, nor will they be granted the death that they will be requesting, or any rest -- not even for a single day. Allah then says,

وَمَآ أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ

(And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is) This is a magnification of the affair of the Day of Judgement. Then Allah affirms it by saying,

ثُمَّ مَآ أَدْرَاكَ مَا يَوْمُ الدِّينِ

(Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is) Then He explains this by saying,

يَوْمَ لاَ تَمْلِكُ نَفْسٌ لِنَفْسٍ شَيْئاً

((It will be) the Day when no person shall have power for another, ) meaning, no one will be able to benefit anyone else, or help him out of that which he will be in, unless Allah gives permission to whomever He wishes and is pleased with. We will mention here a Hadith (where the Prophet said),

«يَا بَنِي هَاشِم، أَنْقِذُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ لَا أَمْلِكُ لَكُمْ مِنَ اللهِ شَيْئًا»

(O children of Hashim! Save yourselves from the Fire, for I have no power to cause you any benefit from Allah.) This has been mentioned previously at the end of the Tafsir of Surat Ash-Shu`ara' (see 26:214). Thus, Allah says,

وَالاٌّمْرُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلَّهِ

(and the Decision, that Day, will be with Allah.) "By Allah, the Decision is for Allah today (now), but on that Day no one will try to dispute with Him about it." This is the end of the Tafsir of Surat Al-Infitar. All praise and blessings are due to Allah, and He is the Giver of success and freedom from error.

Tafsir Saʿdi

English translation, public domain

+
Благочестивыми названы праведники, которые верно исполняют свои обязанности как перед Аллахом, так и перед Его рабами, и непрестанно облагораживают свои души и свои тела добрыми деяниями. Воздаянием таким людям будет благодать, которая объемлет их сердца, души и тела как в этом мире, так и после смерти в барзахе и райском доме вечности.

Maʿārif al-Qur'ān

Mufti Shafi Usmani, English

إِنَّ الْأَبْرَ‌ارَ‌ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ وَإِنَّ الْفُجَّارَ‌ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ (Surely the righteous will be in bliss, and surely the sinners will be in Hell,...82:13-14). These two statements are connected with verse [ 5] above: عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَ‌تْ 'then one will know what he sent ahead and what he left behind. [ 5] '

The verse informs us that each person, on the Day of Reckoning, will know what he has done, and what will be the consequences of his deeds. The present verse says that the righteous will be in perfect bliss, while the sinners will be in a Blazing Fire of Hell.
