To your Lord alone is its finality


There is an implied omitted word in this verse as well. Thus the meaning is: To your Lord belongs the knowledge of its finality/end-time. The advancement of the word “To your Lord” is to convey that to Allah alone, and none else, belongs this knowledge and this is an example of restricting an attribute to its subject.38
