Allah said,

﴿ظ„ظ‘ظگظƒظژظٹظ’ظ„ط§ظژ طھظژط£ظ’ط³ظژظˆظ’ط§ظ’ ط¹ظژظ„ظژظ‰ ظ…ظژط§ ظپظژط§طھظژظƒظڈظ…ظ’ ظˆظژظ„ط§ظژ طھظژظپظ’ط±ظژط­ظڈظˆط§ظ’ ط¨ظگظ…ظژط¢ ط،ظژط§طھظژظ€ظƒظڈظ…ظ’﴾

(In order that you may not grieve at the things over that you fail to get, nor rejoice over that which has been given to you.) meaning, `We informed you of Our encompassing knowledge, recording all things before they occur and creating all things in due measure known to Us, so that you may know that what has met you would never have missed you and what has missed you would never have met you. Therefore, do not grieve for what you have missed of fortune, because had it been destined for you, you would have achieved it.' (It is also recited:) (ظˆظژظ„ظژط§ طھظژظپظ’ط±ظژط­ظڈظˆظ’ط§ ط¨ظگظ…ظژط§ ط£ظژطھظژط§ظƒظڈظ…ظ’) (nor rejoice over that which came to you) meaning, come to you. According to the recitation,

﴿ط،ظژط§طھظژظ€ظƒظڈظ…ظڈ﴾

it means (which has been given to you.) Both meanings are related. Allah says here, `do not boast before people about what Allah has favored you with, because it is not you who earned it by your efforts. Rather, all this came your way because Allah destined them for you and provided them for you as provisions. Therefore, do not use what Allah has granted you as a reason to boast and become arrogant with others.' Allah's statement,

﴿ظˆظژط§ظ„ظ„ظ‘ظژظ‡ظڈ ظ„ط§ظژ ظٹظڈط­ظگط¨ظ‘ظڈ ظƒظڈظ„ظ‘ظژ ظ…ظڈط®ظ’طھظژط§ظ„ظچ ظپظژط®ظڈظˆط±ظچ﴾

(And Allah likes not prideful boasters.) meaning, who acts arrogantly with other people. `Ikrimah commented by saying, "Everyone of us feels happiness and grief. However, make your joy with gratitude and endure your grief with patience.''
