Tafsir Ibn Abbas: Luqman, Ayah 20
أَلَمْ تَرَوْا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَخَّرَ لَكُم مَّا فِى ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَمَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَأَسْبَغَ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعَمَهُۥ ظَٰهِرَةًۭ وَبَاطِنَةًۭ ۗ وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يُجَٰدِلُ فِى ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍۢ وَلَا هُدًۭى وَلَا كِتَٰبٍۢ مُّنِيرٍۢ
Do you not see that Allah has made subject to you whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth and amply bestowed upon you His favors, [both] apparent and unapparent? But of the people is he who disputes about Allah without knowledge or guidance or an enlightening Book [from Him].

Do you not see do you not realise O you who are being addressed that God has disposed for you whatever is in the heavens such as the sun the moon and the stars that you may benefit from them and whatever is in the earth of fruits rivers and animals and He has showered He has made abundant and made complete His favours upon you both outwardly namely by giving you your wholesome form even limbs and otherwise and inwardly? that is by giving you knowledge and so on. Yet among people that is people such as the Meccan disbelievers there are those who dispute concerning God without any knowledge or guidance from a messenger or an illuminating scripture revealed by God rather they dispute by blindly imitating others.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
See ye not) have you not been informed in the Qur'an (how Allah hath made serviceable) has made subservient (unto you whatsoever is in the skies) the sun, the moon, the stars, the clouds and the rain (and whatsoever is in the earth) the trees and beasts (and hath loaded you with) and perfected for you (His favours both without) through the profession of Allah's divine Oneness (and within) through knowledge; it is also said that " without " refers to the good works that people know, and " within " refers to the evil works that people are not aware of; it is also said that " without " refers to food, drink, money and similar things; whereas " within " refers to plants, fruits, the rain, water, etc; and it is also said that " without " refers to that which Allah blesses one with while " within " refers to that which Allah preserves one from? (Yet of mankind) i.e. al-Nadr Ibn al-Harth (is he who disputeth concerning Allah) who argues about the religion of Allah, (without knowledge or guidance) or proof (or a Scripture giving light) or a Scripture expositing what he says.
