Commentary

[1]

Advising the disbeliever, the Muslim told him to acknowledge the power and bounty of Allah Almighty in relation to the garden and that it would be better if he said “Whatever Allah willed”, and acknowledged that the garden and its produce are all subject to the will of Allah and His favour, and everything is dependent upon His authority; if He so wills, He may make it abundant, and if He wills, He may make it barren. From this, we learn a clear difference between the Muslim and the disbeliever; the disbeliever considers his success and wealth to be the result of his personal efforts, whereas the Muslim attributes every success of his to the bounty and generosity of Allah Almighty.
