Hum darajaatun 'indal laah; wallaahu baseerum bimaa ya'maloon
Translation
They are [varying] degrees in the sight of Allah, and Allah is Seeing of whatever they do.
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
They are different in the ranks and levels in the Afterlife: those who follow Allah’s pleasure find their places in Paradise, according to how high their rank in it is; and those who follow what displeases Allah find their places in Hell, according to how low their rank in it is. Allah sees what they do. Nothing is hidden from Him, and everyone will be rewarded according to what they do.
