Commentary on 18:108
﴿كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتُ الْفِرْدَوْسِ نُزُلًا (١٠٧) خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا﴾ [الكهف: ١٠٧، ١٠٨] ﴿خَالِدِينَ فِيهَا﴾ يعني أبدًا، أو لا؟ أبدًا، ولا نزاع في هذا بين أهل السنة.
﴿لَا يَبْغُونَ عَنْهَا حِوَلًا﴾ [الكهف ١٠٨] أي: لا يطلبون ﴿عَنْهَا﴾ أي: بدلًا عنها ﴿حِوَلًا﴾ أي: تَحَوُّلًا، لماذا؟ لأن كل واحد راضٍ بما هو فيه من النعم، وكل واحد لا يرى أن أحدًا أكملُ منه، وهذا من تمام النعيم، أنت مثلًا لو نزلت قصرًا مُنيفًا فيه من كل ما يَبْهج النفس، ولكنك ترى قصر فلان أعظم منه، هل يكمل سرورك؟ مَنْ يريد الدنيا لا يكمل سروره؛ لأنه يرى أن غيره خير منه، لكن في الجنة -وإن كان الناس درجات- لكن النازل منهم -وليس فيهم نازل- يرى أنه لا أحد أنعم منه، عكس أهل النار؛ أهل النار يرى الواحد منهم أنه لا أحد أشد منه، وأنه أشدهم.
﴿لَا يَبْغُونَ عَنْهَا حِوَلًا﴾ يعني: لو قيل للواحد: هل ترغب أن نجعلك في مكان آخر غير مكانك؟ لقال: لا، وهذا من نعمة الله على الإنسان أن يقنع الإنسان بما أعطاه الله -عز وجل- وأن يطمئن، ولا يقلق، ﴿لا يَبْغُونَ عَنْهَا حِوَلًا﴾.

قَالَ هَٰذَا رَحۡمَةٞ مِّن رَّبِّيۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ وَعۡدُ رَبِّي جَعَلَهُۥ دَكَّآءَۖ وَكَانَ وَعۡدُ رَبِّي حَقّٗا ٩٨
[Dhul-Qarnayn] said, "This is a mercy from my Lord; but when the promise of my Lord1 comes [i.e., approaches], He will make it level, and ever is the promise of my Lord true."

۞ وَتَرَكۡنَا بَعۡضَهُمۡ يَوۡمَئِذٖ يَمُوجُ فِي بَعۡضٖۖ وَنُفِخَ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَجَمَعۡنَٰهُمۡ جَمۡعٗا ٩٩
And We will leave them that day1 surging over each other, and [then] the Horn will be blown, and We will assemble them in [one] assembly.

وَعَرَضۡنَا جَهَنَّمَ يَوۡمَئِذٖ لِّلۡكَٰفِرِينَ عَرۡضًا ١٠٠
And We will present Hell that Day to the disbelievers, on display -
18:101
ٱلَّذِينَ كَانَتۡ أَعۡيُنُهُمۡ فِي غِطَآءٍ عَن ذِكۡرِي وَكَانُواْ لَا يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ سَمۡعًا ١٠١
Those whose eyes had been within a cover [removed] from My remembrance,1 and they were not able to hear.2
18:102
أَفَحَسِبَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ أَن يَتَّخِذُواْ عِبَادِي مِن دُونِيٓ أَوۡلِيَآءَۚ إِنَّآ أَعۡتَدۡنَا جَهَنَّمَ لِلۡكَٰفِرِينَ نُزُلٗا ١٠٢
Then do those who disbelieve think that they can take My servants instead of Me as allies? Indeed, We have prepared Hell for the disbelievers as a lodging.

قُلۡ هَلۡ نُنَبِّئُكُم بِٱلۡأَخۡسَرِينَ أَعۡمَٰلًا ١٠٣
Say, [O Muḥammad], "Shall we [believers] inform you of the greatest losers as to [their] deeds?
18:104
ٱلَّذِينَ ضَلَّ سَعۡيُهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَهُمۡ يَحۡسَبُونَ أَنَّهُمۡ يُحۡسِنُونَ صُنۡعًا ١٠٤
[They are] those whose effort is lost in worldly life, while they think that they are doing well in work."
18:105
أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمۡ وَلِقَآئِهِۦ فَحَبِطَتۡ أَعۡمَٰلُهُمۡ فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ وَزۡنٗا ١٠٥
Those are the ones who disbelieve in the verses of their Lord and in [their] meeting Him, so their deeds have become worthless; and We will not assign to them on the Day of Resurrection any weight [i.e., importance].
18:106
ذَٰلِكَ جَزَآؤُهُمۡ جَهَنَّمُ بِمَا كَفَرُواْ وَٱتَّخَذُوٓاْ ءَايَٰتِي وَرُسُلِي هُزُوًا ١٠٦
That is their recompense - Hell - for what they denied and [because] they took My signs and My messengers in ridicule.
18:107
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ كَانَتۡ لَهُمۡ جَنَّٰتُ ٱلۡفِرۡدَوۡسِ نُزُلًا ١٠٧

قُل لَّوۡ كَانَ ٱلۡبَحۡرُ مِدَادٗا لِّكَلِمَٰتِ رَبِّي لَنَفِدَ ٱلۡبَحۡرُ قَبۡلَ أَن تَنفَدَ كَلِمَٰتُ رَبِّي وَلَوۡ جِئۡنَا بِمِثۡلِهِۦ مَدَدٗا ١٠٩

Say, "I am only a man like you, to whom has been revealed that your god is one God. So whoever would hope for the meeting with his Lord - let him do righteous work and not associate in the worship of his Lord anyone."
