(129) وَلِلّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ يَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَاء وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَاء وَاللّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
129. " And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. He will forgive whom He wills, and will punish whom He wills; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful."
Commentary:
This verse, is an emphasis on the meaning of the previous verse, saying that the punishments and torments are upto Allah, because the creation and sovereignty of all existence is in His control.
" And to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth. ... "
It is interesting that the persons who are involved with the wrath of Allah or those who receive the mercy of Allah are not defined in the verse. This case may be for the sake that everybody remains between fear and hope, and neither pride nor despair falls upon them.
"... He will forgive whom He wills, and will punish whom He wills,..."
It is clear, of course, that forgiveness and punishment depend on both the Wisdom ofAllah and the bases that the person produces in oneself and in the society.
"... and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. "
