Pickthall — Mohammed Marmaduke William Pickthall

His are the keys of the heavens and the earth. He enlargeth providence for whom He will and straiteneth (it for whom He will). Lo! He is Knower of all things.

Yusuf Ali — Abdullah Yusuf Ali

To Him belong the keys of the heavens and the earth: He enlarges and restricts. The Sustenance to whom He will: for He knows full well all things.

تفسير ابن كثير — Ismail ibn Kathir

وقوله : ( له مقاليد السموات والأرض ) تقدم تفسيره في " سورة الزمر " ، وحاصل ذلك أنه المتصرف الحاكم فيهما ، ( يبسط الرزق لمن يشاء ويقدر ) أي : يوسع على من يشاء ، ويضيق على من يشاء ، وله الحكمة والعدل التام ، ( إنه بكل شيء عليم )
