No disaster strikes upon the earth or among yourselves except that it is in a register before We bring it into being - indeed that, for Allah, is easy -

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

No calamity afflicts the people on earth i.e. a drought etc., nor a personal calamity, except that it has been recorded in the Preserved Tablet before I created the creations. Indeed, that is easy for Me.
