Ibn Abbas Commentary

(Who is he that will lend unto Allah) by giving alms (a goodly loan) sincerely from his heart, intending no one but Allah, (that He may double it for him) that Allah may accept it from Him and increase his reward from seven to 70 up to 700 and one million folds, and up to whatever folds Allah wills, (and his may be a rich reward) an abundant reward in the Garden? This verse was revealed about Abu'l-Dahdah.

Who is it that will lend God by expending his wealth in the way of God a goodly loan goodly by virtue of his expending it for God’s sake so that He may multiply it fa-yudā‘ifahu may also be read fa-yuda‘‘ifahu for him from tenfold up to more than seven hundredfold —as stated in sūrat al-Baqara Q. 2261 and so that there may be for him in addition to the multiplied reward a generous reward coupled with satisfaction and prosperity.
