Whoever desires the reward of this world - then with Allah is the reward of this world and the Hereafter. And ever is Allah Hearing and Seeing.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

مَّن كَانَ يُرِيدُ ثَوَابَ الدُّنْيَا فَعِندَ اللّهِ ثَوَابُ الدُّنْيَا وَالاخِرَةِWhoever desires the rewards of this life, then with Allah is the reward of this worldly life and of the Hereafter.means, O those whose ultimate desire is this life, know that Allah owns the rewards of this life and the Hereafter. Therefore, if you ask Allah for both, He will enrich you, award you and suffice for you.As Allah said,فَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَأ ءَاتِنَا فِى الدُّنْيَا وَمَا لَهُ فِى الاٌّخِرَةِ مِنْ خَلَـقٍوِمِنْهُم مَّن يَقُولُ رَبَّنَأ ءَاتِنَا فِى الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الاٌّخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِأُولَـيِكَ لَهُمْ نَصِيبٌ مِّمَّا كَسَبُواْBut of mankind there are some who say:"Our Lord! Give us in this world!" and for such there will be no portion in the Hereafter.And of them there are some who say:"Our Lord! Give us in this world that which is good and in the Hereafter that which is good, and save us from the torment of the Fire!" For them there will be allotted a share for what they have earned), (2:200-202) مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ حَرْثَ الاٌّخِرَةِ نَزِدْ لَهُ فِى حَرْثِهِWhosoever desires (by his deeds) the reward of the Hereafter, We give him increase in his reward. (42:20) and,مَّن كَانَ يُرِيدُ الْعَاجِلَةَ عَجَّلْنَا لَهُ فِيهَا مَا نَشَاء لِمَن نُّرِيدُ(Whoever desires the quick-passing (transitory enjoyment of this world), We readily grant him what We will for whom We like) until, انظُرْ كَيْفَ فَضَّلْنَا بَعْضَهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ (See how We prefer one above another (in this world)). (17:18-21) So Allah said here,وَكَانَ اللّهُ سَمِيعًا بَصِيرًاAnd Allah is Ever All-Hearer, All-Seer
