Al-Jalalayn Commentary

But those who strive against Our signs namely the Qur’ān in order to invalidate them seeking to incapacitate mu‘ajjizīna those who follow the Prophet this meaning of mu‘ajjizīna being derived from their assumption that these followers are incapable individuals and impeding them from practising their faith; or mu‘ajjizīna means supposing Us to be incapable against them a variant reading of mu‘ajjizīna has mu‘ājizīna meaning ‘contending with Us’ that is to say they suppose that they will be able to elude Us by denying resurrection and requital — those they shall be the inhabitants of hell-fire.

(While those who strive to thwart Our revelations) while those who disbelieved in Muhammad (pbuh) and in the Qur'an, (such are rightful owners of the Fire) these are not going to escape from Our chastisement, for they are the inhabitants of hell.
