According to search-discovered Islamic scholarship, the concept of hospitality (الضيافة, Al-Diyafah) is a cornerstone of faith and character, exemplified by prophets and mandated by the Sunnah. It encompasses 'Ikram al-Dayf'—the act of honoring a guest—as a profound act of worship. However, the Quran elevates this concept to an eschatological level through the term 'Nuzul' (a guest's entertainment or provision). Classical tafsir, including the work of Ibn Kathir, reveals the powerful duality of 'Nuzul': for the righteous, it is the blissful hospitality and welcome from Allah in Paradise, as mentioned in Surah Al-Imran (3:198). [1] In stark and terrifying contrast, for the astray and deniers, their 'Nuzul' is the just recompense of drinking from boiling water and eating from the tree of Zaqqum in Hellfire, as detailed in Surah Al-Waqi'ah (56:51-56, 56:92-93). This rhetorical use underscores the certainty and nature of their final destination. [2] This synthesis across verses transforms hospitality from a mere worldly virtue into a powerful metaphor for one's ultimate and fitting reception by Allah based on their deeds.
