Ibn Abbas Commentary

(Whoso desireth the harvest of the Hereafter) the reward of the Hereafter through his works for Allah, (We give him increase in its harvest) We give him increase in his reward; it is also said: We give him increase in his strength, activity and reward in the Hereafter. (And Whoso desireth the harvest of the world) and whoever desires the reward of the life of the world through the works that Allah has made obligatory upon him, (We give him thereof) We give him of the life of the world and drive away from him some of its hardship, (and he hath no portion) he has no reward (in the Hereafter) in Paradise because he did not work for Allah.

And whoever desires in return for his actions the harvest of the Hereafter in other words its gains and that is reward We will enhance for him his harvest by multiplying in it the good deed up tenfold or more; and whoever desires the harvest of this world We will give him of it without multiplying any of it giving him only what is his preordained share; but in the Hereafter he will have no share.
