16:81 And Allah has made for you, from that which He has created, shadows and has made for you from the mountains, shelters and has made for you garments which protect you from the heat and garments which protect you from your [enemy in] battle. Thus does He complete His favor upon you that you might submit [to Him].
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishAllah has made for you trees and buildings that you use as shade from the heat.
He has made for you tunnels, caverns and caves in the mountains that you use as a cover from the cold, heat and from enemies.
He has made for you shirts and clothing of cotton that protect you from the heat and cold.
He has made for you armour that protect you from the violence of others in war so that the weapons do not penetrate and reach your bodies.

16:81 And Allah has made for you, from that which He has created, translate in arabic
والله جعل لكم مما خلق ظلالا وجعل لكم من الجبال أكنانا وجعل لكم سرابيل تقيكم الحر وسرابيل تقيكم بأسكم كذلك يتم نعمته عليكم لعلكم تسلمون
سورة: النحل - آية: ( 81 ) - جزء: ( 14 ) - صفحة: ( 276 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
And it is Allah Who made the trees and other objects He created cast shadows* when they intercept light to protect you from the scorching heat of the sun and He hollowed out for you caves in the hills and the mountains to shelter you and He equipped you with garments to protect you from the heat and other garments -armours- to shield you from the weapons when you contend in warfare. Thus does Allah mean to make all grace abound in you that you may hopefully conform to Islam
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(16:81) Allah has made for you from the many things He has created shelter from the sun. He has created for you places of refuge in the mountains and blessed you with such garments as protect you from heat *76 and garments which shield you in your fights. *77 Thus He perfects His blessings on you, *78 so that you should submit to Him.
And Allah has made for you, from that which He has created, meaning
*76) The Qur'an has not mentioned protection from cold for either of the two reasons: (1) Because the use of garments in the summer season is a symbol of cultural perfection and obviously there is no need to mention the lower stages of culture. Or (2) the use of garments in hot countries has specially been mentioned because the main use of garments there is for protection from the hot pestilential furious wind. Therefore, one has to cover one's head, neck, ears, and the whole of ones body to protect it from the hot wind which would otherwise scorch one to death.
*77) That is, "Armour".
*78) "He perfects His blessings on you": AIIah makes provision for the minutest needs and necessities of every aspect of human life. For example, Iet us take the instance of the protection of the human body from external influences. We fmd that Allah has made such elaborate arrangements as require a complete book to relate them. These arrangements reach their perfection in the case of clothing and housing arrangement. Or, if we consider the food requirements we realize that it is of many varieties which fulfil every need. More than this: the means Allah has provided for food requirements of man are so numerous that the list of the varieties and the names of different kinds of food require a big volume. This is the perfection of the blessing of food. Likewise, one would see perfection of the blessings of Allah in the fulfillment of each and every human need and necessity.
And Allah has made for you, from that which He has created, meaning in Urdu
اس نے اپنی پیدا کی ہوئی بہت سی چیزوں سے تمہارے لیے سائے کا انتظام کیا، پہاڑوں میں تمہارے لیے پناہ گاہیں بنائیں، اور تمہیں ایسی پوشاکیں بخشیں جو تمہیں گرمی سے بچاتی ہیں اور کچھ دوسری پوشاکیں جو آپس کی جنگ میں تمہاری حفاظت کرتی ہیں اس طرح وہ تم پر اپنی نعمتوں کی تکمیل کرتا ہے شاید کہ تم فرماں بردار بنو
