So by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees. (68)

Tafsir

لَنَحْشُرَ‌نَّهُمْ وَالشَّيَاطِينَ ثُمَّ لَنُحْضِرَ‌نَّهُمْ

"We will definitely gather them together with the devils, then We will definitely make them present." - Maryam 19:68 .

This verse may be interpreted in two ways. First, that on the Day of Judgment every infidel will be brought before God along with his own devil, and this suggests that this is a reference to the gathering of infidels and their devils. But if it is interpreted in a general sense to include all believers and infidels then the meaning of the devils being gathered with all of them would be that while the infidels will be gathered with their devils, the believers would also be gathered at the same time and place. Thus the devils will be gathered along with the infidels as well as with the believers.

حَوْلَ جَهَنَّمَ جِثِيًّا

"Around the Jahannam fallen on their knees." - Maryam 19:68 .

On the Day of Resurrection every one - believers, infidels, the blessed and the wretched - will be assembled around Hell. Everyone will be seized with awe and terror, and they will all be on their knees, then the believers and the blessed will be taken across Hell and admitted into Paradise, so that having viewed the extreme suffering of Hell they may all the better enjoy their own state of felicity, and at the same time rejoice at the punishment which has been inflicted upon the infidels.
