قُلْنَا ٱهْبِطُوا۟ مِنْهَا جَمِيعًۭا ۖ فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّى هُدًۭى فَمَن تَبِعَ هُدَاىَ فَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ ٣٨

We said, "Go down from it, all of you. And when guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

Allah tells; قُلْنَا اهْبِطُواْ مِنْهَا جَمِيعاً فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّي هُدًىWe said:"Get down all of you from this place (the Paradise), then whenever there comes to you Hudan (guidance) from Me,Allah stated that when He sent Adam, Hawwa, and Shaytan to earth from Paradise, He warned them that He will reveal Books and send Prophets and Messengers to them, i.e., to their offspring.Abu Al-Aliyah said,"Al-Huda, refers to the Prophets, Messengers, the clear signs and plain explanation."فَمَن تَبِعَ هُدَايَAnd whoever follows My guidance,meaning, whoever accepts what is contained in My Books and what I send the Messengers with.فَلَ خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْThere shall be no fear on them,regarding the Hereafter,وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَnor shall they grieve.regarding the life of this world.Similarly, in Surah Ta Ha, Allah said,قَالَ اهْبِطَا مِنْهَا جَمِيعاً بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّى هُدًى فَمَنِ اتَّبَعَ هُدَاىَ فَلَ يَضِلُّ وَلَا يَشْقَىHe (Allah) said:"Get you down (from the Paradise to the earth), both of you, together, some of you are an enemy to some others. Then if there comes to you guidance from Me, then whoever follows My guidance, he shall neither go astray, nor shall he be distressed. (20:123)Ibn Abbas commented, "He will not be misguided in this life or miserable in the Hereafter."The Ayah, وَمَنْ أَعْرَضَ عَن ذِكْرِي فَإِنَّ لَهُ مَعِيشَةً ضَنكًا وَنَحْشُرُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَعْمَى (But whosoever turns away from My Reminder (i.e. neither believes in this Qur'an nor acts on its teachings) verily, for him is a life of hardship, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection), (20:124) is similar to what Allah stated here,وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرواْ وَكَذَّبُواْ بِأيَاتِنَا أُولَـيِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ
