Translation
Whenever there cometh down a sura, some of them say: "Which of you has had His faith increased by it?" Yea, those who believe,- their faith is increased and they do rejoice.
Tafsir
And whenever a soora, of Al-Qur'an, is revealed, there are some of them, that is, the hypocrites, who say, to their companions, mockingly: 'Which of you has this increased in faith?', and God says: As for those who believe, it has increased them in faith, because they accept that it is true, and they rejoice, because of it.
"Faith of the Believers increases, while Hypocrites increase in Doubts and Suspicion
Allah said,
وَإِذَا مَا أُنزِلَتۡ سُورَةٌ
And whenever there comes down a Surah,
then among the hypocrites are,
فَمِنۡهُم مَّن يَقُولُ أَيُّكُمۡ زَادَتۡهُ هَـذِهِ إِيمَانًا
some of them say:""Which of you has had his faith increased by it!""
They say to each other, who among you had his faith increased by this Surah (from the Qur'an).
Allah the Exalted said,
فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ امَنُواۡ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ إِيمَانًا وَهُمۡ يَسۡتَبۡشِرُونَ
As for those who believe, it has increased their faith, and they rejoice.
This Ayah is one of the mightiest evidences that faith increases and decreases, as is the belief of most of the Salaf and later generations of scholars and Imams.
Many scholars said that there is a consensus on this ruling. We explained this subject in detail in the beginning of the explanation of Sahih Al-Bukhari, may Allah grant him His mercy.
Allah said next
وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِم مَّرَضٌ فَزَادَتۡهُمۡ رِجۡسًا إِلَى رِجۡسِهِمۡ
But as for those in whose hearts is a disease, it will add Rijs to their Rijs.
The Surah increases them in doubt, and brings more suspicion on top of the doubts and suspicion that they had before. Allah said in another Ayah,
وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الۡقُرۡءَانِ مَا هُوَ شِفَأءٌ
And We send down in the Qur'an that which is a healing. (17:82)
and,
قُلۡ هُوَ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواۡ هُدًى وَشِفَأءٌ وَالَّذِينَ لَا يُوۡمِنُونَ فِى ءَاذَانِهِمۡ وَقۡرٌ وَهُوَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ عَمًى أُوۡلَـيِكَ يُنَادَوۡنَ مِن مَّكَانٍ بَعِيدٍ
Say:""It is for those who believe, a guide and a healing. And as for those who disbelieve, there is heaviness (deafness) in their ears, and it (the Qur'an) is blindness for them. They are those who are called from a place far away (so they neither listen nor understand)."" (41:44)
This indicates the misery of the hypocrites and disbelievers, since, what should bring guidance to their hearts is instead a cause of misguidance and destruction for them. Similarly, those who get upset by a type of food, for instance, will be upset and anxious even more if they are fed that food!
وَمَاتُواۡ وَهُمۡ كَافِرُونَ
and they die while they are disbelievers."
