﴿ لِمَن شَآءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَتَقَدَّمَ أَوْ يَتَأَخَّرَ ﴾

“to everyone of you, whether he chooses to come forward or to hang back!”

alike to those of you who wish li-man shā’a minkum is a substitution for li’l-bashar ‘to all humans’ to advance towards good or towards Paradise by means of faith or linger behind in evil or in Hell because of their disbelief.
