Commentary

And when man is held accountable for what he has earned, this is caused by his actions. His saying confirms their denial: "Indeed, the Hellfire"; meaning the intense fire, the great blaze, gathering upon whoever enters it. "It is"; meaning no other than it, "the abode"; meaning the dwelling for him. This is the view of the Basri scholars that the pronoun is omitted. And according to the Kufan scholars, the "Al" is a substitute for the pronoun - this was said by Abu Hayyan.
