Surah 79. An-Nazi'at, Ayah 33
| مَتَاعًا لَكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَامِكُمْ |
| Transliteration | : | mataac(an) la- -kum wa- li- ancaam -kum |
| Pickthall | : | A provision for you and for your cattle. |
| Asad | : | [all this] as a means of livelihood for you and your animals.15 |
| Malik | : | and made them beneficial for you and your cattle. |
| Yusuf Ali | : | For use and convenience to you and your cattle. 5940 |
Note - 15Implying (as in {80:24-32}) that man ought to be grateful
to God, and should always be conscious of His being the
Provider: hence the subsequent return of the discourse to
the theme of resurrection and ultimate judgment.

Note - 5940This clause I construe to apply to verses 30, 31, and 32
above. Everything on earth has, by Allah's bountiful
providence, been arranged to subserve the use and
convenience of man and the lower life which depends upon
him. The intermediary between Allah's providence and the
actual use made of Allah's other gifts is man's own
intelligence and initiative, which are also gifts of
Allah.
