10.48-49

وَ یَقُوْلُوْنَ مَتٰى هٰذَا الْوَعْدُ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ صٰدِقِیْنَ(48) قُلْ لَّاۤ اَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِیْ ضَرًّا وَّ لَا نَفْعًا اِلَّا مَا شَآءَ اللّٰهُؕ-لِكُلِّ اُمَّةٍ اَجَلٌؕ-اِذَا جَآءَ اَجَلُهُمْ فَلَا یَسْتَاْخِرُوْنَ سَاعَةً وَّ لَا یَسْتَقْدِمُوْنَ(49)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Imaan

And they would say, 'When will this promise come, if you are truthful?' Say you (O Beloved), 'I have no power to benefit or hurt myself on my own accord but what Allah wills. For every nation is a promise; when their promise shall come, so, they cannot delay (it) a moment nor can they advance a moment.'

Commentary

The verse means that the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم expressed that he did not have the authority to benefit or harm without the permission of Allah Almighty (a fundamental principle). However, Allah Almighty may grant him power over anything He wills. Remember, it is established from numerous verses and Hadith narrations that Allah Almighty has granted the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم power and authority over creation.
