Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

Allah is the Protector, Ruler and CreatorHere Allah denounces the idolators for taking other gods instead of Allah, and declares that He is the True God, and it is not right to worship anyone except Him Alone. He is the One Who is able to bring the dead back to life and He is Able to do all things. Then He says:وَمَا اخْتَلَفْتُمْ فِيهِ مِن شَىْءٍ فَحُكْمُهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ(And in whatsoever you differ, the decision thereof is with Allah.) means, in whatever issue you differ.
