Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And to Allâh belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. And on the Day that the Hour will be established - on that Day the followers of falsehood (polytheists, disbelievers, worshippers of false deities) shall lose (everything).

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi
Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
(Ayah 27) ➊ { وَ لِلّٰهِ مُلْكُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِ:} In the previous verse, the act of giving life for the first time and causing death was presented as evidence for resurrection on the Day of Judgment. In this verse, being the sole owner of the heavens and the earth—that is, the entire universe—is mentioned as evidence for the Day of Judgment, that He can do whatever He wills with His dominion. He can create the entire universe, cause it to perish, and then create it again. After this, some conditions of the Day of Judgment are mentioned.
➋ { وَ يَوْمَ تَقُوْمُ السَّاعَةُ يَوْمَىِٕذٍ يَّخْسَرُ الْمُبْطِلُوْنَ:} Just as a merchant strives to gain profit through his capital, in the same way Allah Almighty has granted man the capital of life, health, and intellect in this world and commanded him to strive to gain the profit of success in the Hereafter. The people of falsehood, that is, the disbelievers, instead of gaining profit through this precious capital, spent it in associating partners with Allah, disobeying Him, and denying the Day of Judgment, and thus remained in clear loss. The full manifestation of this loss will occur when the Day of Judgment is established, because in this world there is still an opportunity to make up for this loss, but at that time there will be no permission to return to the marketplace of deeds so that they can make up for their loss. For further details of this loss, see the exegesis of Surah Al-Asr.
