Translation
(It will be) the Day when no soul shall have power (to do) aught for another: For the command, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.
Tafsir
[It is] a day (read yawmu) when no soul will be of any avail, any use, to another soul, and the [absolute] command on that day will be God's: there will be no [power of] command for anyone other than Him thereat, in other words, none has been given the power to mediate thereupon, in contrast to [situations] in this world.
The Reward of the Righteous and the Sinners Allah informs of what the righteous will receive of delight.
إِنَّ الاَۡبۡرَارَ لَفِي نَعِيمٍ
وَإِنَّ الۡفُجَّارَ لَفِي جَحِيمٍ
Verily, the Abrar (the righteous believers) will be in Delight;
And verily, the wicked will be in the blazing Fire (Hell),
They are those who obeyed Allah and did not meet Him with disobedience (sins). Then He mentions that the evildoers will be in Hell and eternal torment.
Due to this He says,
يَصۡلَوۡنَهَا يَوۡمَ الدِّينِ
Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,
meaning, the Day of Reckoning, Recompense, and Judgement.
وَمَا هُمۡ عَنۡهَا بِغَايِبِينَ
And they will not be absent therefrom.
meaning, they will not be absent for even one hour from the torment. The torment will not be lightened from them, nor will they be granted the death that they will be requesting, or any rest -- not even for a single day.
Allah then says,
وَمَا أَدۡرَاكَ مَا يَوۡمُ الدِّينِ
And what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
This is a magnification of the affair of the Day of Judgement.
Then Allah affirms it by saying,
ثُمَّ مَا أَدۡرَاكَ مَا يَوۡمُ الدِّينِ
Again, what will make you know what the Day of Recompense is?
Then He explains this by saying
يَوۡمَ لَا تَمۡلِكُ نَفۡسٌ لِّنَفۡسٍ شَيۡيًا
(It will be) the Day when no person shall have power for another,
meaning, no one will be able to benefit anyone else, or help him out of that which he will be in, unless Allah gives permission to whomever He wishes and is pleased with.
We will mention here a Hadith where the Prophet said,
يَا بَنِي هَاشِم أَنۡقِذُوا أَنۡفُسَكُمۡ مِنَ النَّارِ لَاا أَمۡلِكُ لَكُمۡ مِنَ اللهِ شَيۡيًا
O children of Hashim!
Save yourselves from the Fire, for I have no power to cause you any benefit from Allah.
This has been mentioned previously at the end of the Tafsir of Surah Ash-Shu`ara'(see 26:214).
Thus, Allah says,
وَالاۡاَمۡرُ يَوۡمَيِذٍ لِلَّهِ
and the Decision, that Day, will be with Allah.
By Allah, the Decision is for Allah today (now), but on that Day no one will try to dispute with Him about it.
This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah Al-Infitar. All praise and blessings are due to Allah, and He is the Giver of success and freedom from error.
