Ibn Abbas Commentary

(And lo! unto Us belong the latter portion and the former) and to Us belong the reward of the life of the world and that of the Hereafter; it is also said that this means: to Us belong the life of the world in which We bestow knowledge and success and also the Hereafter in which We bestow reward and honour.

And truly to Us belong the Hereafter and the first life that is to say that of this world and so whoever seeks either of the two from anyone other than Us has erred.
