He is the Lord of the heavens, the earth, and whatever is between them, the All-Mighty [66], the All-Forgiving.
[66] In the previous verse, His attribute of being All-Dominant was mentioned, while the addressees were disbelievers. That is, Allah is the One who subdues everything; the disbelievers can never escape His grasp at any time. And in this verse, His attribute of being Most Forgiving is mentioned, meaning that He forgives the sins of those servants who believe and live as His servants.
