Surah Al Fath Tafseer

وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالاَْرْضِ

And to Allah belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth.

Allah the Exalted then states that He is the Only Authority, King and Owner Who has full control over the residents of the heavens and earth,

يَغْفِرُ لِمَن يَشَاء وَيُعَذِّبُ مَن يَشَاء وَكَانَ اللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَّحِيمًا

He forgives whom He wills, and punishes whom He wills.

And Allah is Forgiving, Most Merciful. (with those who repent, return and submit to Him with humiliation.)
