The people on the right will be blessed, the people on the left will be miserable, and the forerunners will be foremost in Paradise as the believers closest to Allah. Each will be rewarded or punished after facing Judgement. Surah Waqiah talks about the Companions of the Right, Companions of The Left, and The Forerunners. These three groups will have distinct conditions, punishment, and rewards based on the deeds they performed in this life.
