57.29

لِّئَلَّا یَعْلَمَ اَهْلُ الْكِتٰبِ اَلَّا یَقْدِرُوْنَ عَلٰى شَیْءٍ مِّنْ فَضْلِ اللّٰهِ وَ اَنَّ الْفَضْلَ بِیَدِ اللّٰهِ یُؤْتِیْهِ مَنْ یَّشَآءُؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِیْمِ۠ (29)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

So that the People of the Book come to know that they have no power over anything from the Grace of Allah and that ˹all˺ grace is in the Power of Allah, He grants it to whomsoever He wills—and Allah is the Possessor of Supreme Grace.[1]

Commentary

[1]

When the abovementioned verse was revealed in which the believers from the People of the Book were promised double reward if they embraced faith in the Final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, the disbelievers from the People of the Book said: “If we believe in the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, a double reward will be given, but if we do not, we will still receive one reward.” This verse was subsequently revealed and it was said that Allah Almighty commanded the People of the Book to believe in the Final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم so that they may become aware that without believing in him, they cannot attain anything from the grace of Allah Almighty i.e., double reward, light, and forgiveness.
