كُلًّۭا (To) each نُّمِدُّ We extend هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ (to) these وَهَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ and (to) these مِنْ from عَطَآءِ (the) gift رَبِّكَ ۚ (of) your Lord وَمَا And not كَانَ is عَطَآءُ (the) gift رَبِّكَ (of) your Lord مَحْظُورًا restricted ٢٠

ٱنظُرْ See كَيْفَ how فَضَّلْنَا We preferred بَعْضَهُمْ some of them عَلَىٰ over بَعْضٍۢ ۚ others وَلَلْـَٔاخِرَةُ And surely the Hereafter أَكْبَرُ (is) greater دَرَجَـٰتٍۢ (in) degrees وَأَكْبَرُ and greater تَفْضِيلًۭا (in) excellence ٢١
