121. “And say to those who do not believe: ‘Act according to your ability; we shall do (our part)’;”
122. “And wait you! We too are surely waiting.”
Allah commands the Prophet (S) when confronting their stiff-neckedness and obstinacy to do the same as the previous prophets did and say what they said, that the disbelievers should do all that is in their power and do not spare in their efforts, and the Prophet and the believers will do likewise.
The verse says:
“And say to those who do not believe: ‘Act according to your ability; we shall do (our part)’;”
He also should tell the unbelievers to wait and see and the believers too, will wait and see, for one side will win and the other will be defeated.
The verse says:
“And wait you! We too are surely waiting.”
The unbelievers seek the defeat of the believers but the latter will wait for the real Divine punishment which the unbelievers will receive either by means of the hands of the believers or directly from the side of Allah.
