Tafseer

'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī

تفسير : (see) o muhammad (how we prefer one above another) in this worldly life by means of wealth and servants, (and verily the hereafter) in the hereafter (will be greater in degrees) greater merits for the believers (and greater in preferment) for the believers who will have more rewards and higher degrees.

Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī

تفسير : see how we have given preference to some of them over others, in provision and renown. and truly the hereafter is greater, grander, in degrees and greater in preferment, to this world, and so one ought to devote one’s attention to it [the hereafter], to the exclusion of the other.
