Ibn Abbas Commentary

(But (as for) those who believe) in Muhammad, Allah give him peace, and the Qur'an (and do good works) between them and their Lord (We tax not any soul) in its effort (beyond its scope) its capability. (Such) i.e. the believers (are rightful owners of the Garden) the folk of Paradise. (They abide therein) forever, never to die or be removed.
