7:156 And decree for us in this world [that which is] good and [also] in the Hereafter; indeed, we have turned back to You." [Allah] said, "My punishment - I afflict with it whom I will, but My mercy encompasses all things." So I will decree it [especially] for those who fear Me and give zakah and those who believe in Our verses -
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in English' And make us among those You have favoured with Your blessings and well-being, enabling us to do good works.
And make us from among Your righteous servants for whom You have prepared Paradise.
Indeed we turn to You in repentance, admitting our mistakes.
' Allah said: 'I give My punishment to whom I will; those who do the actions leading to misery, and My Mercy surrounds all things in this world.
There is no created being or object that My Mercy has not reached, immersed in My Grace and Kindness.
I will decree My Mercy in the Afterlife for those who are mindful of Me, following what I instruct and staying away from what I have prohibited, giving charity from their wealth as they have been ordered, and who have faith in My signs.
'
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

He added: We pray and beseech You to bestow on us Your prevenient and efficacious grace here, and Your efficacious grace Hereafter; we have surrendered ourselves to You and our purpose and cause to Your divine service. My punishment, said Allah, is a penalty I inflict on whom I will, and My mercy is extended to the wide circle of the all; I will accord it to those who entertain the profound reverence dutiful to Me. It is those who give alms and give credence to Our revelations and signs, with hearts impressed with the image of religious and spiritual virtues
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(7:156) And ordain for us what is good in this world and in the World to Come for to You have we turned.'He replied: 'I afflict whomsoever I wish with My chastisement. As for My mercy, it encompasses everything. *111 will show mercy to those who abstain from evil, pay Zakat and have faith in Our signs.'
And decree for us in this world [that which is] good and meaning
*111). It is false to assume that the general rule underlying God's governance of His realm is that of wrath which is occasionally tempered with mercy and benevolence. On the contrary, the general rule is that of mercy and benevolence and wrath is the exception which is aroused when man's transgression and rebellion exceed all reasonable limits.
And decree for us in this world [that which is] good and meaning in Urdu
اور ہمارے لیے اس دنیا کی بھلائی بھی لکھ دیجیے اور آخرت کی بھی، ہم نے آپ کی طرف رجوع کر لیا" جواب میں ارشاد ہوا "سزا تو میں جسے چاہتا ہوں دیتا ہوں، مگر میری رحمت ہر چیز پر چھائی ہوئی ہے، اور اُسے میں اُن لوگوں کے حق میں لکھوں گا جو نافرمانی سے پرہیز کریں گے، زکوٰۃ دیں گے اور میری آیات پر ایمان لائیں گے"
