يُسَبِّحُ لِلَّهِ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۖ لَهُ ٱلْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ ٱلْحَمْدُ ۖ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
17:45; 24:42; 59:25; 61:2; 62:2.
Every creature, by discharging its allotted task punctually and regularly and thus by fulfilling the object for which it has been created, declares God to be free from every defect, imperfection or impurity and to be its Master, Creator and Controller. This is the real significance of Tasbih.

هُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ فَمِنكُمْ كَافِرٌ وَمِنكُم مُّؤْمِنٌ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ
God has bestowed upon men great natural powers and has provided for them opportunities for their moral and spiritual progress but while some of them, by failing to make proper use of them, practically refuse to acknowledge God’s beneficence, others employ them in the service of their fellow beings and thus win the pleasure of Allah. This is the significance of the words Kafir and Mu’min.
Commentary:
God has provided to all men adequate powers and opportunities for moral and spiritual development but some of them, by their failure to make proper use of those opportunities, practically refuse to acknowledge God’s beneficence and disobey His laws and commandments, while others by employing them in the service of their fellow beings succeed in winning His pleasure.

خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَصَوَّرَكُمْ فَأَحْسَنَ صُوَرَكُمْ ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ ٱلْمَصِيرُ
3:7; 7:12.
The universe is governed and controlled by certain fixed natural laws and man is not the victim of chance; on the contrary, he has been endowed with such powers and faculties as are suited to his exalted position as God’s vicegerent on earth. He shall have to render to God an account of his deeds and actions.
3:7; 7:12.
Commentary:
The universe is governed and controlled by fixed natural laws and man is not the victim of chance, but being the crown and acme of the whole creation he has been endowed with such powers and faculties as are suited to his position as God’s vicegerent on earth: and because of these powers he will have to render to God an account of his deeds and actions.

يَعْلَمُ مَا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَيَعْلَمُ مَا تُسِرُّونَ وَمَا تُعْلِنُونَ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌۢ بِذَاتِ ٱلصُّدُورِ

2:78; 16:20; 27:26.
God being the Creator and Controller of the universe, nothing is hidden from Him or can escape His notice. It is, therefore, futile on man’s part to think that he can avoid or escape responsibility for his actions.
2:78; 16:20; 27:26.
Commentary:
As man has to render an account of his actions to God, he must realise that God being the Creator and Controller of the universe, nothing is hidden from Him or can escape His notice. It is therefore futile on man’s part to think that he can avoid or escape responsibility for his actions.

أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَؤُا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَبْلُ فَذَاقُوا۟ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُۥ كَانَت تَّأْتِيهِمْ رُسُلُهُم بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ فَقَالُوٓا۟ أَبَشَرٌ يَهْدُونَنَا فَكَفَرُوا۟ وَتَوَلَّوا۟ ۚ وَّٱسْتَغْنَى ٱللَّهُ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ غَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ
Commentary:
As man has been endowed with great faculties of head and heart and as he has to render an account of his deeds in the life hereafter, God sent His Messengers to guide him to the goal of his life. But man, in his ingratitude and conceit, defies and opposes Divine Messengers, thereby incurring Divine punishment.

زَعَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ أَن لَّن يُبْعَثُوا۟ ۚ قُلْ بَلَىٰ وَرَبِّى لَتُبْعَثُنَّ ثُمَّ لَتُنَبَّؤُنَّ بِمَا عَمِلْتُمْ ۚ وَذَٰلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرٌ
36:79, 80; 46:18; 50:4.
Za‘ama means, he thought; claimed; believed; asserted (Lane).
Does man think that there is no future life or that he has been endowed with great natural powers, attributes and faculties for nothing, or, does he imagine that he can escape responsibility for his actions? He is sadly mistaken if he so imagines. There is certainly a life after death wherein you shall certainly be informed of what you did.

人以为没有未来的生命, 或者以为平白无故地赋有伟大的自然力量、品德和才能, 或者他以为对他的行为可以逃避责任?他这么想就可悲了。死后当然有复生, “那儿你将得知自己做过的是什么事。”

The expression, Yaumut-Taghabun, has been variously interpreted as: (1) The day of losses and gains, i.e. when believers will know what they had gained and disbelievers what they had lost. (2) The day of the manifestation of loss, i.e. on that day disbelievers will realize how much they had been deficient in the discharge of their duties to God and man and thus their loss will become manifest to them. (3) The day when believers will attribute defect or deficiency to lack of wisdom of disbelievers in that they had preferred disbelief to belief (Mufradat).
