Ngl this is one of the most direct statements made by Allah in my opinion in the entire Quran. Sometimes, Allah is so direct that it sends shivers down our spines and goosebumps to the highest degree. Read Surah Bayyinah as well. Whatever Allah has wrote in the Quran is the truth, and my Lord never errs or forgets, He has said it himself in Surah Taha.
If a kafir kills a person, doesn’t turn to the natural path of Islam, and doesn’t repent, this is the reality for him, as Quran won’t lie, or in better words, Allah will never break his promise.
If a Muslim commits a major sin (such as intentional killing or adultery) and dies without repenting, they will be punished in Hell according to the severity or magnitude of the sin, then eventually be taken out of Hell. No Muslim will stay in Hell forever. Ref: Quran.com
At the same time, we must remember that Allah is the doer of whatever He wills. He can forgive whoever He wills regardless of the state someone died in. So let’s not takfeer around everyone we see (like calling them a kafir), it is Allah’s decision and it is His final decision alone to cast someone into Hellfire or save him and grant him paradise, not our tongues.
