The question

Is God not able to admit disbelievers, polytheists, and those who did not believe in Muhammad (peace be upon him) into Paradise, by shrinking the camels so they can pass through the eye of a needle, despite His saying, Exalted be He: "They will not enter Paradise until a camel passes through the eye of a needle"?

The answer

Allah Almighty’s saying: (And they will not enter Paradise until a camel passes through the eye of a needle) means the impossibility of those who deny Allah’s verses entering Paradise; because the Quran was revealed in the Arabic tongue, and this expression signifies the impossibility of something occurring, just as it is impossible for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. This meaning is affirmed by other texts in the Quran and Sunnah, which state that the destiny of disbelievers and polytheists is the Fire, not Paradise.
