Tafsir
And God would never send a people astray after He had guided them to Islam until He had made clear to them that which they should be wary of in the way of deeds but when they are not wary of it then they deserve to be sent astray. Surely God is Knower of all things including who deserves to be sent astray or to be guided.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(It was never Allah's (part) that he should send a folk astray) that he should leave a folk in error; it is also said this means: Allah will never thwart the works of a folk (after He had guided them) to faith (until He had made clear unto them what they should avoid) that which has been abrogated by means of that which has abrogated it. (Lo! Allah is Aware of all things) the abrogated and the abrogating.
