    10. This refers to man, animals, farming, gardens, etc. 

    From this we learn that Allah Almighty has not created anything without its utility. Some things are bad, but their creation is not bad. The infidels are evil, but their creation is not evil. If the infidels were not created, then how would the believers have participated in Holy Wars and received the spoils of war and martyrdom? Due to the presence of the infidels, many acts of worship of the believers are established. For further information about this, consult Tafseer Naeemi in which the wisdom for the creation of the devil is outlined.

    11. Who are those who adopt lawful things and abstain from prohibited things and who are those who differentiate between these two? It should be remembered that testing by Allah Almighty is not for His knowledge, but to make this apparent upon His servants so that nobody can raise objections regarding this on the Day of Judgement.
