Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
هُوَ الَّذِى جَعَلَكُمْ خَلَـئِفَ فِى الاٌّرْضِ(He it is Who has made you successors generations after generations in the earth,) meaning, all people succeed one another, generation after generation. This is like the Ayah:وَيَجْعَلُكُمْ حُلَفَآءَ الاٌّرْضِ(and makes you inheritors of the earth, generations after generations) (27:62).فَمَن كَفَرَ فَعَلَيْهِ كُفْرُهُ(so whosoever disbelieves, on him will be his disbelief.) means, he and no one else will have to bear the consequences of that.
