English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
As to My servants, thou shalt certainly have no power over them, and sufficient is thy Lord as a Guardian.
English - Five Volume Translation
[a]As to My servants, thou shalt certainly have no power over them, and sufficient is thy Lord as a Guardian.[1995]
15:41; 38:84.
Commentary:
The verse purports to say that man is amenable to the enticement of Satan so long as he is not "resurrected" i.e. as long as his faith does not attain its full stature. The verse also teaches man the secret of becoming safe from the attacks of Satan. It is that he should give himself up wholly to the care and protection of God and, instead of depending upon his own resources and efforts, should rely upon Him alone, for Satan can cause no harm to one who is under the guardianship of God.
