وَٱتَّقُواْ يَوْماً لاَّ تَجْزِي نَفْسٌ عَن نَّفْسٍ شَيْئاً وَلاَ يُقْبَلُ مِنْهَا عَدْلٌ وَلاَ تَنفَعُهَا شَفَاعَةٌ وَلاَ هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ
١٢٣
-Al-Baqarah ( البقرة )

Al Qushairi Tafsir

[2:123] And beware of a day when no soul shall for another be requited, and no compensation shall be accepted from it, nor any intercession shall benefit it, neither shall they be helped.
As for the enemies, nothing [i.e., no payment or compensation] will be accepted from them. As for the friends, [the Prophet] (ṣ) said, 'Beware of the fire even if it be on account of half a date [given in charity]'. The intercession of intercessors will not benefit the disbeliever, for this is a determination made for each community with their prophet. As for the believers, they will benefit in particular from the Prophet's (ṣ) intercession. Everyone on that day will be saying, 'My soul, my soul', but Our Prophet (ṣ) will say, 'My community, my community'.
