Hello @Ashbeel Ashkar Gohar 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Jira filtering is geared to return information about issues, not information about users. There is no native capability to use a Jira filter to get a list of users with no assigned issues.

You could get a list of users that do have assigned issues and plug it into a Two Dimensional gadget in a dashboard. You could then manually compare the list of users who do have assigned issues to a separate list of all users and pick out the ones that are not showing up in the gadget.

There are several posts on this topic over the years in these communities. You can find them by using Google to search for jira cloud users with no issues assigned

Here are a few post from a few years ago that talk about trying to collect information about users with and without any assigned issues. I'm not sure if this would help you. And it does require the Adaptavist Scriptrunner app.

You might be able to use the Two Dimensional Filter Statistics gadget to get the information you want.
