كُلًّا نُمِدُّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ وَهَٰؤُلَاءِ مِنْ عَطَاءِ رَبِّكَ ۚ وَمَا كَانَ عَطَاءُ رَبِّكَ مَحْظُورًا٢٠

Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 17:20
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
ومع هذا فلا يفوتهم نصيبهم من الدنيا فكلا يمده الله منها لأنه عطاؤه وإحسانه. { وَمَا كَانَ عَطَاءُ رَبِّكَ مَحْظُورًا } أي: ممنوعا من أحد بل جميع الخلق راتعون بفضله وإحسانه.
