And when he was freed from what they imagined about him, there remained the possibility that it could be for the purpose of a worldly matter, so he negated it by his saying: "Say". This is addressed to the disbelievers: "Whatever" (p-532), meaning whatever "I have asked you for reward"; that is, for my supplication for you, "it is for you". I do not want anything from it, and this is a metaphor indicating that I do not ask you for a reward for my supplication for you to Allah at all in any way. So if it is established that the supplication is not for a worldly purpose, and that the supplicant is the most rational of people, it is established that what led him to expose himself to those great dangers is nothing but the command of Allah, to whom belongs all command. And when they thought of him in some of their assumptions that he wanted a worldly matter, he affirmed his saying: "Indeed"; that is, whatever "my reward is only upon Allah"; meaning the one who is greater than that. So it is not appropriate for one with ambition to seek anything except from Him. "And He"; that is, while He "is All-Witnessing over everything"; meaning He has complete knowledge of its conditions, so He is deserving of destroying the oppressor and elevating the status of the obedient.
