The misinterpretation
Say; My Lord gives abundant sustenance to whomever of His servants He wills and cuts (from whom He wills). Whatever you spend for good, Allah will give someone else in its place. He is the best of those who provide sustenance.
The right translation
Say, “My Lord gives abundant provisions or decreases (by people’s wish from Allah, bound by their covenant). Whatever you spend on good deeds, Allah gives (back) in return. Ultimately, Allah provides the provisions (all the sustenance and needs).”
Explanation
In the 36th verse of this Surah, we wrote briefly that Our Lord has no will over mankind, and since this verse also mentions will, we repeat here the meaning of the verse we opened.
We have written in many verses that our Lord has no will over mankind, and since the Qur'an refers to will as repetition, we are putting our footnote about will as repetition.
In this verse we have written that our Lord has no will over people, that every soul has made a covenant with our Lord, and that people's desires and wishes are written to them as destiny, and that this will never change again, and in this case, our Lord has no will over people. It is explained in detail in verse 172 of Surah A'râf. Why were we created, where were we created, why did He make a covenant with mankind and why did He send us into the world even though He knew what we were? You can get information from there.

They say "we affirmed".
Yes. In the thirty-ninth verse there is a mistake. "Say: my Lord gives abundant provision to whom He wills of His servants, and restricts it for whom He wills." We read this.
Yes. Here too it again says, "but most people do not know". The same verse seems to come twice, but I guess it isn't. "My Lord gives abundant provision to whom He wills of His servants. He restricts it for whom He wills. Whatever you spend for good, Allah gives something else in its place.
He is the best of providers," it says. Here it is not the same verse, it's different. Yes. "Say: my Lord gives abundant provision to whoever wishes among His servants, and restricts it for whoever wishes. Whatever you spend for good, Allah gives something else in its place. He is the best of providers." Yes. Whatever you give for Allah's sake, (?) Allah will never let your effort go to waste. In return for what you earned, 11 (?) times, 2 times, 3 times over He gives. Where do we give for this? There are lived events of this. With Job (peace be upon him), his wealth and property go, everything goes, but he makes no concession from Allah.
In the end, when he recovers, Allah gives him once as much again of his family and children, of his wealth, of his property.
