English - Short Commentary Translation
As for man, when his Lord tries him and honours him and [a]bestows favours[3338] on him, he says, ‘My Lord has honoured me.’
17:84.
Favours are bestowed upon man, sometimes to test his mettle; at other times to reward him for his good actions. Similarly, he is involved in troubles that he may be tried and rewarded or punished according to his desert. But man is so constituted that when he is in ease and affluence, he regards these things as the fruits of his own labour and superior intelligence (28:79); but when misfortunes overtake him, he attributes them to God.
