They are on (true) guidance, from their Lord, and it is these who will prosper.
Tafsir
Those, as described in the way mentioned, are upon guidance from their Lord, those are the ones that will prosper, that is, who will succeed in entering the Paradise and be saved from the Hellfire.
"Guidance and Success are awarded to the Believers
Allah said,
أُوۡلَـيِكَ
They are,
refers to those who believe in the Unseen, establish the prayer, spend from what Allah has granted them, believe in what Allah has revealed to the Messenger and the Messengers before him, believe in the Hereafter with certainty, and prepare the necessary requirements for the Hereafter by performing good deeds and avoiding the prohibitions.
Allah then said,
عَلَى هُدًى مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ
on guidance from their Lord,
meaning, they are (following) a light, guidance, and have insight from Allah,
وَأُوۡلَـيِكَ هُمُ الۡمُفۡلِحُونَ
And they are the successful.
meaning, in this world and the Hereafter. They shall have what they seek and be saved from the evil that they tried to avoid. Therefore, they will have rewards, eternal life in Paradise, and safety from the torment that Allah has prepared for His enemies.
Allah said,
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواۡ سَوَاءٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ أَأَنذَرۡتَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تُنذِرۡهُمۡ لَا يُوۡمِنُونَ
Verily, those who disbelieve, it is the same to them whether you warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواۡ
(Verily, those who disbelieve) meaning,
covered the truth and hid it.
Since Allah has written that they would do so, it does not matter if you (O Muhammad) warn them or not, they would still have disbelieved in what you were sent with.
Similarly, Allah said,
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ حَقَّتۡ عَلَيۡهِمۡ كَلِمَةُ رَبِّكَ لَا يُوۡمِنُونَ
وَلَوۡ جَأءَتۡهُمۡ كُلُّ ءايَةٍ حَتَّى يَرَوُاۡ الۡعَذَابَ الاٌّلِيمَ
Truly, those against whom the Word (wrath) of your Lord has been justified, will not believe. Even if every sign should come to them, until they see the painful torment. (10:96-97)
About the rebellious People of the Book, Allah said,
وَلَيِنۡ أَتَيۡتَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُواۡ الۡكِتَـبَ بِكُلِّ ءَايَةٍ مَّا تَبِعُواۡ قِبۡلَتَكَ
And even if you were to bring to the People of the Book (Jews and Christians) all the Ayat, they would not follow your Qiblah (prayer direction). (2:145)
These Ayat indicate that whomever Allah has written to be miserable, they shall never find anyone to guide them to happiness, and whomever Allah directs to misguidance, he shall never find anyone to guide him. So do not pity them - O Muhammad - deliver the Message to them. Certainly, whoever among them accepts the Message, then he shall gain the best rewards.
As for those who turn away in rejection, do not feel sad for them or concerned about them, for
فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيۡكَ الۡبَلَغُ وَعَلَيۡنَا الۡحِسَابُ
(Your duty is only to convey (the Message) and on Us is the reckoning (13:40), and,
إِنَّمَا أَنتَ نَذِيرٌ وَاللّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيۡءٍ وَكِيلٌ
(But you are only a warner. And Allah is a Wakil (Disposer of affairs, Trustee, Guardian) over all things), (11:12).
Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said about Allah's statement,
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواۡ سَوَاءٌ عَلَيۡهِمۡ أَأَنذَرۡتَهُمۡ أَمۡ لَمۡ تُنذِرۡهُمۡ لَا يُوۡمِنُونَ
(Verily, those who disbelieve, it is the same to them whether you (O Muhammad) warn them or do not warn them, they will not believe),
""That the Messenger of Allah was eager for all the people to believe and follow the guidance he was sent with. Allah informed him that none would believe except for those whom He decreed happiness for in the first place, and none would stray except those who Allah has decreed to do so in the first place."
