Summary
The verse explains that the people of Paradise receive whatever they desire, and with Allah there is still more. This addition is interpreted as a further favour and honour, namely seeing the face of Allah SWT, based on the narration of Anas and Jabir that Allah manifests Himself to them every Friday. In al-Mausu'ah al-Quraniyyah, the verse is linked to the God-fearing, who are given many kinds of bounty beyond anything that ever crossed their minds.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Perkataan al-mazid seperti yang diriwayatkan Anas dan Jabir bin Abdillah bahawa Allah tajalli untuk mereka sehingga mereka dapat melihat-Nya, yang demikian itu ialah setiap hari Jumaat.
