What is the meaning of the verse that states that man will not be questioned about sin on the Day of Judgment?
The Quranic verse: "On that Day, no human or jinn will be questioned about their sin," is interpreted in three main ways:
1. Absence of questioning for inquiry and information: Allah is already Most Knowing of their sins, and any questioning would be for rebuke and confirmation. 2. Testimony of limbs: Humans, disbelievers, and hypocrites will not be questioned on the Day of Judgment; rather, their mouths will be sealed, and their hands and feet will speak about what they earned. 3. Visible signs: Disbelievers will be recognized by their features, such as blackened faces and blue eyes, thus eliminating the need to question them about their sins.
These interpretations do not contradict verses that affirm questioning because the Day of Judgment is long and has multiple stages. In some stages, they will be questioned, and in others, they will not.
