Ibn Kathir
Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
مَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالاْاَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِلاَّ بِالْحَقِّ.
We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them except in truth,

وَأَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى
and for a specified term.
meaning, for a fixed and specified duration that will not increase or decrease.
Allah continues,
وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا عَمَّا أُنذِرُوا مُعْرِضُونَ
But those who disbelieve, turn away from that of which they are warned.
Meaning, the disbelievers are distracted from what is intended for them. Allah has indeed revealed to them a Book and sent to them a Messenger. Yet, they obstinately turn away from all of that. Therefore, they will soon realize the consequence of their behavior.
