Ibn Kathir (Abridged)

The Attributes of Those Who deserve that which is with Allah

Here Allah points out the insignificance of this worldly life and its transient adornments and luxuries.

فَمَآ أُوتِيتُمْ مِّن شَىْءٍ فَمَتَـعُ الْحَيَوةِ الدُّنْيَا

(So whatever you have been given is but (a passing) enjoyment for this world

Sura 42, Ukurasa 487, Juzuu 25

30. Whatever affliction befalls you is because of what your own hands have committed. And He pardons much. 31. You can never escape ˹Him˺ on earth, nor do you have any protector or helper besides Allah. 32. And among His signs are the ships like mountains ˹sailing˺ in the sea. 33. If He wills, He can calm the wind, leaving the ships motionless on the water. Surely in this are signs for whoever is steadfast, grateful. 34. Or He can wreck the ships for what the people have committed—though He forgives much— 35. so those who dispute about Our signs may know that they have no refuge. 36. Whatever ˹pleasure˺ you have been given is ˹no more than a fleeting˺ enjoyment of this worldly life. But what is with Allah is far better and more lasting for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord; 37. who avoid major sins and shameful deeds, and forgive when angered; 38. who respond to their Lord, establish prayer, conduct their affairs by mutual consultation, and donate from what We have provided for them; 39. and who enforce justice when wronged. 40. The reward of an evil deed is its equivalent. But whoever pardons and seeks reconciliation, then their reward is with Allah. He certainly does not like the wrongdoers. 41. There is no blame on those who enforce justice after being wronged. 42. Blame is only on those who wrong people and transgress in the land unjustly. It is they who will suffer a painful punishment. 43. And whoever endures patiently and forgives—surely this is a resolve to aspire to.
