And the meaning of this Hadith is like what is reported in a narration from Abu Hurayrah that, "For everyone there is a place in Paradise and a place in Hell" So if the believer enters paradise his place in Hellfire will be occupied by a disbeliever, due to (the fact that) he himself deserves it because of his disbelief. And the meaning of [the words] 'Your rescue from Hell' is that you were susceptible to entry into Hell and this (disbeliever) is (as such) your rescue for Almighty Allah has destined for Hell a number that will fill it and (the number will be completed) when the disbelievers enter it due to their disbelief and sins. This is referred to as rescue for Muslims."
