O Mankind, the Messenger has come to you with the truth from your Lord, so believe; it is better for you. But if you disbelieve - then indeed, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth. And ever is Allah Knowing and Wise.
Tafsir
Verse range: 4:170
Allah then said,
يا أيها الناس قد جاءكم الرسول بالحق من ربكم فامنوا خيرا لكم
O mankind! Verily, there has come to you the Messenger with the truth from your Lord, so believe in him, it is better for you. This Ayah means, Muhammad has come to you with guidance, the religion of truth and clear proof from Allah. Therefore, believe in what he has brought you and follow him, for this is better for you. Allah then said,
وإن تكفروا فٳن لله ما في السماوات واﻻرض
But if you disbelieve, then certainly to Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Allah is far too rich than to need you or your faith, and no harm could ever affect Him because of your disbelief. Allah said in another Ayah,
وقال موسى إن تكفروا أنتم ومن فى اﻻرض جميعا فٳن الله لغنى حميد
And Musa said: "If you disbelieve, you and all on earth together, then verily, Allah is Rich (Free of all needs), Owner of all praise.'' (14:8) Allah said here,
وكان الله عليما
And Allah is Ever All-Knowing, He knows those who deserve to be guided, and He will guide them. He also knows those who deserve deviation, and He leads them to it.
