Yunus • EN-TAFSIR-IBN-ABBAS
﴿ وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ ٱللَّهُ بِضُرٍّۢ فَلَا كَاشِفَ لَهُۥٓ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ وَإِن يُرِدْكَ بِخَيْرٍۢ فَلَا رَآدَّ لِفَضْلِهِۦ ۚ يُصِيبُ بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ ﴾
“And [know that] if God should touch thee with misfortune, there is none who could remove it save Him; and if He intends good for thee, there is none who could turn away His bounty: He causes it to alight upon whomsoever He wills of His servants. And He alone is truly forgiving, truly a dispenser of grace.”
(If Allah afflicteth thee with some hurt) with hardship or a disliked matter, (there is none who can remove it) i.e. the harm (save Him; and if He desireth) and if He bestows upon you (good for thee) a blessing or pleasant matter, (there is none who can repel His bounty) there is none who can stop His gift, (He striketh with it) He favours with His bounty (whom He will of His bondmen) whoever deserves it. (He is the Forgiving) He forgives those who repent, (the Merciful) towards those who die in a state of repentance.
