\n My father said, \u2018Sa\u2019ad Bin Abdullah narrated to us, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Suleyman Bin Dawood Al Shazkown, from Ahmad Bin Yunus, from Abu Hashim who said, \n \u2018I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the eternity in the Paradise and the Fire.

He-asws said: \u2018But rather eternity is for the people of the Fire in the Fire because their intentions when they were in the world was such that had they remained therein eternally, they would have disobeyed for ever; and the eternity for the people of the Paradise in the Paradise is because their intentions when they were in the world were such that had they remained they would have obeyed Allah-azwj forever, for as long as they had remained.

Thus the intentions of those ones and these ones were eternal\u2019. Then he-asws recited the Words of the High [17:84] Say: Every one acts according to his own disposition . He-asws said: \u2018Upon his intention\u2019.
