***

Tafsir Ibn Kathir Volume 3, Page 307.

Allah answers His servant and Messenger `Isa, son of Maryam when `Isa refers their end to the will of his Lord,

﴿هَـذَا يَوْمُ يَنفَعُ الصَّـدِقِينَ صِدْقُهُمْ﴾

This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth.

Ad-Dahhak said that Ibn `Abbas commented, “This is the Day when Tawhid will benefit those who believed in it.”

﴿لَهُمْ جَنَّـتٌ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا الاٌّنْهَـرُ خَـلِدِينَ فِيهَآ أَبَداً﴾

Theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise) — they shall abide therein forever.

And they will never be removed from it,

﴿رِّضِىَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُواْ عَنْهُ﴾

Allah is pleased with them and they with Him.

 Allah’s statement,

﴿ذلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِيمُ﴾

That is the great success.

Means this is the great success, other than which there is no greater success.
