Translation
Say, "Indeed, my Lord extends provision for whom He wills and restricts [it], but most of the people do not know."
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
O Messenger, say to these who have been deceived by the favours they have been given: “My Lord expands provision for whom He wants, to test whether he is grateful or ungrateful, and He makes it tight for whom He wants, to test whether he is patient or becomes upset. But most people do not know that Allah is Wise. He does not decree a matter except due to complete wisdom which is known to those who know and which the ignorant are unaware of”.
