Tafsir of Verse 10

Those are the inheritors

These will be the heirs,

أُولَـٰئِكَ هُمُ الْوَارِ‌ثُونَ الَّذِينَ يَرِ‌ثُونَ الْفِرْ‌دَوْسَ

Those are the inheritors who will inherit Firdaus (Paradise) - 23:10, 11.

The good Muslims who possess the attributes described above have been declared in this verse to be the heirs to the garden of Paradise. There is a suggestion here that just as the assets of a deceased person must devolve on his heirs, similarly the possessors of these attributes will, without doubt, enter Paradise. It should be noted that the possessors of these seven qualities have been mentioned in the beginning as those who attain falah or success, then after describing these qualities it is mentioned in this last sentence that possessors of these qualities will inherit Paradise. This indicates that the total falah (success) may be achieved in Paradise only.
