'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī
تفسير : (and we have given unto you) we have created for you (livelihoods therein) on the earth: vegetations and fruits and that which you eat, drink and wear, (and unto those for whom ye provide not) and he also provides livelihood for those to whom you do not provide such as birds and wild beasts; it is also said that this refers to children in the wombs of their mothers.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : and we have made for you therein [means of] livelihood (read ma‘āyish), such as fruits and grains, and, we have made [this] for you, those for whom you do not provide, such as servants, [crawling] creatures and cattle; it is god who provides for them.
