10:31

قُلْ مَن يَرْزُقُكُم مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ أَمَّن يَمْلِكُ ٱلسَّمْعَ وَٱلْأَبْصَـٰرَ وَمَن يُخْرِجُ ٱلْحَىَّ مِنَ ٱلْمَيِّتِ وَيُخْرِجُ ٱلْمَيِّتَ مِنَ ٱلْحَىِّ وَمَن يُدَبِّرُ ٱلْأَمْرَ ۚ فَسَيَقُولُونَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ فَقُلْ أَفَلَا تَتَّقُونَ ٣١

Saheeh International

Say, "Who provides for you from the heaven and the earth? Or who controls hearing and sight and who brings the living out of the dead and brings the dead out of the living and who arranges [every] matter?" They will say, " Allah," so say, "Then will you not fear Him?"

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

The Idolators recognize Allah's Tawhid in Lordship and the Evidence is established against Them through this Recognition Allah argues that the idolators' recognition of Allah's Oneness in Lordship is an evidence against them, for which they should admit and recognize the Oneness in divinity and worship. So Allah said:قُلْ مَن يَرْزُقُكُم مِّنَ السَّمَاء وَالَارْضِSay:"Who provides for you from the sky and the earth!"meaning, who is He Who sends down water from the sky and splits the earth with His power and will and allows things to grow from it,أَءِلـهٌ مَّعَ اللهِIs there a god, besides Allah (Who provides)! (27:62)فَأَنبَتْنَا فِيهَا حَبّاًوَعِنَباً وَقَضْباًوَزَيْتُوناً وَنَخْلًوَحَدَايِقَ غُلْباًوَفَـكِهَةً وَأَبّاًGrains. And grapes and clover plants. And olives and date palms. And gardens dense with many trees. And fruits and herbage." (80:27-31)فَسَيَقُولُونَ اللّهThey will say:"Allah."أَمَّنْ هَـذَا الَّذِى يَرْزُقُكُمْ إِنْ أَمْسَكَ رِزْقَهُ"Who is he that can provide for you if He should withhold His provision! (67:21) Allah's statement,أَمَّن يَمْلِكُ السَّمْعَ والَابْصَارَOr who owns hearing and sight,means that Allah is the One who granted you the power of sight and hearing. If He willed otherwise, He would remove these gifts and deprive you of them.Similarly, Allah said:قُلْ هُوَ الَّذِى أَنشَأَكُمْ وَجَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالاٌّبْصَـرَSay it is He Who has created you, and endowed you with hearing and seeing. (67:23)Allah also said:قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَخَذَ اللَّهُ سَمْعَكُمْ وَأَبْصَـرَكُمْSay:"Tell me, if Allah took away your hearing and your sight. (6:46)Then Allah said:وَمَن يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَيُخْرِجُ الْمَيَّتَ مِنَ الْحَيِّAnd who brings out the living from the dead and brings out the dead from the living!by His great power and grace.وَمَن يُدَبِّرُ الَامْرَAnd who disposes of the affairs!In Whose Hand is the dominion of everything Who protects all, while against Whom there is no protector! Who is the One who judges with none reversing His judgement! Who is the One that is not questioned about what He does while they will be questionedيَسْأَلُهُ مَن فِى السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ فِى شَأْنٍWhosoever is in the heavens and on earth begs of Him. Every day He is (engaged) in some affair! (55:29)The upper and lower kingdoms and what is in them both, including the angels, humans, and Jinn are in desperate need of Him. They are His servants and are under His control.فَسَيَقُولُونَ اللّهُThey will say:"Allah."they say this knowingly and they admit it.فَقُلْ أَفَلَ تَتَّقُونَSay:`Will you not then be afraid (of Allah's punishment)!"meaning, don't you fear Him when you worship others because of your ignorance and false opinions!Allah then said
