Ibn Abbas Commentary

(And if ye turn away) from faith and repentance, (still I have conveyed unto you that wherewith I was sent unto you) of the message and about your destruction, (and my Lord will set in place of you a folk other than you) who are better and more obedient than you. (Ye cannot injure Him at all) your destruction will not harm Allah in any way. (Lo! my Lord is Guardian) and Witness (over all things) related to your works.

And if you turn away tawallaw one of the two tā’ letters of tatawallaw has been omitted that is if you object still I have conveyed to you that wherewith I was sent to you and my Lord will set in place of you a folk other than you. You cannot injure Him in any way by your idolatry. Truly My Lord is Preserver Watcher over all things’.
