Tafsir
And if God afflicts you smites you with some hurt such as impoverishment or illness there is none who can remove it save Him; and if He desires good for you there is none who can repel His bounty that bounty which He has intended for you. He strikes with it that is with such good whomever He will of His servants.” He is the Forgiving the Merciful’.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(If Allah afflicteth thee with some hurt) with hardship or a disliked matter, (there is none who can remove it) i.e. the harm (save Him; and if He desireth) and if He bestows upon you (good for thee) a blessing or pleasant matter, (there is none who can repel His bounty) there is none who can stop His gift, (He striketh with it) He favours with His bounty (whom He will of His bondmen) whoever deserves it. (He is the Forgiving) He forgives those who repent, (the Merciful) towards those who die in a state of repentance.
