Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
No one will dare to speak before Allah -- not even the Angels - without first receiving PermissionAllah informs of His magnificence and His majesty, and that He is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, and whatever is in them and between them. He explains that He is the Most Gracious, Whose mercy covers all things. Then He says,لاَ يَمْلِكُونَ مِنْهُ خِطَاباً(With Whom they cannot dare to speak.) meaning, no one is able to begin addressing Him except by His permission.
