And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment, [so they will be] brothers, on thrones facing each other.
(And We remove whatever rancour may be in their breasts�) [15:47]. �Abd al-Rahman ibn Hamdan al-�Adl informed us> Ahmad ibn Ja�far ibn Malik> �Abd Allah ibn Ahmad ibn Hanbal> Muhammad ibn Sulayman ibn Khalid al-Fahham> �Ali ibn Hashim> Kathir al-Nawwa� who said: �I said to Abu Ja�far: �So-and-so related to me that he related from �Ali ibn al-Husayn, may Allah be pleased with father and son, that this verse was revealed about Abu Bakr, �Umar and �Ali, may Allah be well pleased with them (And We remove whatever rancour may be in their breasts. As brethren, face to face, (they rest) on couches raised)�. He said: �By Allah, it was revealed about them; and about whom else would it be revealed if not about them�. I asked: �What rancour is that which is referred to here?� He said: �The rancour of the time of ignorance; there was rancour between the Banu Taym, the Banu �Adiyy and the Banu Hashim during the period of ignorance. When these people embraced Islam, they loved each other. In one occasion, Abu Bakr had pain in his waist, so �Ali warmed his hand and applied it on Abu Bakr�s waist. This verse was then revealed� �.
لَا يَمَسُّهُمْ فِيهَا نَصَبٌۭ وَمَا هُم مِّنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَ
No fatigue will touch them therein, nor from it will they [ever] be removed.

[O Muhammad], inform My servants that it is I who am the Forgiving, the Merciful.
(Announce, (O Muhammad) unto My slaves that verily I am the Forgiving, the Merciful�) [15:49]. Ibn al-Mubarak reported through his chain of transmission from a Companion of the Prophet, Allah bless him and give him peace, that he said: �The Messenger of Allah, Allah bless him and give him peace, came out to us from the door which the Banu Shaybah use and found us laughing. He said: 'I see that you are laughing!' He retreated but when he reached the buttress, he came back to us and said: 'When I left, Gabriel, peace be upon him, came to me and said: 'O Muhammad, Allah, glorious and majestic is He, says: Why are you driving my servants to despair? (Announce, (O Muhammad) unto My slaves that verily I am the Forgiving, the Merciful)' ' �.
وَأَنَّ عَذَابِى هُوَ ٱلْعَذَابُ ٱلْأَلِيمُ
And that it is My punishment which is the painful punishment.
