وَلَقَدْ مَكَّنَّـٰكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَجَعَلْنَا لَكُمْ فِيهَا مَعَـٰيِشَ ۗ قَلِيلًا مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ
Traductions
Certes, Nous vous avons donné du pouvoir sur terre et Nous vous y avons assigné subsistance. (Mais) vous êtes très peu reconnaissants!And We have certainly established you upon the earth and made for you therein ways of livelihood. Little are you grateful.Tafsir
Ô enfants d’Adam, Nous avons fait en sorte que vous soyez dominant sur Terre et Nous y avons placé ce qui vous permet de trouver votre subsistance. Il vous incombait de remercier Allah pour cela mais combien votre gratitude fut insignifiante.
Lire Ibn Kathir (Ibn Kathir (abrégé, en anglais))
And surely, We gave you authority on the earth and appointed for you therein livelihoods. Little thanks do you give (10)
All Bounties in the Heavens and Earth are for the Benefit of Mankind
Allah reminds of His favor on His servants in that He made the earth a fixed place for dwelling, placed firm mountains and rivers on it and made homes and allowed them to utilize its benefits. Allah made the clouds work for them (bringing rain) so that they may produce their sustenance from them. He also created the ways and means of earnings, commercial activities and other professions. Yet, most of them give liltle thanks for this. Allah said in another Ayah,
وَإِن تَعُدُّوا نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ لَا تُحْصُوهَا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَظَلُومٌ كَفَّارٌ
(And if you count the blessings of Allah,never will you be able to count them. Verily, man is indeed a wrongdoer, an ingrate.)[14:34]
