وَأَهْلُ الْكَبَائِرِ مِنْ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي النَّارِ لَا يُخَلَّدُونَ إِذَا مَاتُوا وَهُمْ مُوَحِّدُونَ
Major sinners from Muhammad’s ﷺ community do not remain eternally in the Fire if they die as affirmers of Allah’s oneness, even if they enter it.
Clause structure: Lā yukhalladūn negates permanent residence in Hell; idhā mātū wa-hum muwaḥḥidūn adds the condition of dying upon tawḥīd. Omitting it changes the scope.
Meaning and inference: The statement concerns major sinners of the Prophet’s community who die upon tawḥīd; grave sin alone does not entail eternal punishment.
Limit of inference: This does not authorize judgment of every individual’s final destiny or make serious sin harmless.
