And of them are some who look toward you. But will you guide the blind, even though they do not see? -- He likens them [the Meccan disbelievers] to these [the blind] because they fail to be guided, nay, [they are] much worse [since God says]; It is not the eyes that are blind, but blind are the hearts within the breasts [Q. 22;46].
Tafseer Ibn Kathir
وَمِنهُم مَّن يَنظُرُ إِلَيْكَ
And among them are some who look at you,
They look at you and at what Allah has given you in terms of dignity, noble personality and great conduct. There is in all of this clear evidence of your Prophethood to those who have reason and insight. Other people also look but they do not receive guidance like them. Believers look at you with respect and dignity while disbelievers regard you with contempt.
وَإِذَا رَأَوْكَ إِن يَتَّخِذُونَكَ إِلاَّ هُزُواً
And when they see you, they treat you only in mockery. (25;41)
أَفَأَنتَ تَهْدِي الْعُمْيَ وَلَوْ كَانُواْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ
but can you guide the blind -- even though they see not!
Then Allah announces that He is never unjust with anyone. He guides whomever He wills and opens the eyes of the blind, makes the deaf hear and removes neglect from the hearts. At the same time He lets others go astray, moving away from faith. He does all of that yet He is always Just, for He is the Ruler and has full authority over His kingdom. He does whatever He wills without any restrictions. No one can question Him as to what He does while he will question everyone else. He is Omniscient, All-Wise, and All-Just.
So Allah said;
