(Whoso desireth that (life) which hasteneth away) i.e. this worldly life by performing that which was made obligatory upon him, (We hasten for him therein) We give him in this worldly life (that We will) to give (for whom We please) to destroy in the Hereafter. (And afterward We have appointed) We have decreed (for him hell; he will endure the heat thereof, condemned, rejected) and deprived from the reward of any good deed. This verse was revealed about Marthad Ibn Thumamah.
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
Whoever desires through his deeds the hasty world that is the life of this world We hasten for him therein whatever We will for whom We please such a hastening li-man nurīd ‘for whom We please’ is a substitute for lahu ‘for him’ with the repetition of the genitive particle li-. Then We appoint for him in the Hereafter Hell to which he will be exposed to which he will be admitted condemned blameful and rejected banished from God’s mercy.
