Reflection — Ibn Kathir
The Matter of Guidance and other than it is in the Hand of Allah, and Allah's Warning about the Hell
Qatadah said,
إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا لَلْهُدَى
Reflection — Maarif ul Quran
وَمَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّىٰ (And his wealth will not help him when he will fall down...92:11). The word taradda literally denotes 'to fall into a pit and perish'. The expression 'When he fall' signifies that when Divine decree regarding his destruction comes into operation, nothing - not even his wealth - will save him, whether in grave after his death, or on the Day of Judgment, when he will be falling into the abyss of Hell.
