The Day that He assembles you for a Day of Assembly - that will be a Day of mutual loss and gain, and those who have faith in Allah and work righteousness - He will remove from them their bad deeds, and He will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, to dwell therein for ever: that will be the Supreme Achievement
The following is an excerpt of commentary on this ayah from Tafsir Ibn Kathir:
[This refers to] the Day of Resurrection. This is the Day when the earlier and later generations will all be gathered in one area, a caller would be heard by them all, and one's vision would easily see them all... Ibn Abbas said, "It is one of the names of the Day of Judgement, and that is because the people of Paradise will have gained over the people of the Fire." Qatadah and Mujahid said similarly. Muqatil bin Hayyan said, "There is no mutual loss and gain greater than these entering Paradise and those being taken to the Fire"
