The tafsir of Surah Ad-Duha verse 11 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Ad-Duha ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 11.

The favor that Allah has done of helping duringorphan-hood, demands that the orphans be treated well.The favor that Allah did of enriching after poverty requiresthat Allah’s needy servants be helped and supported. Inshort, this is a very comprehensive instruction which Allahgave to His Messenger (peace be upon him) in this briefsentence after having described His bounties and blessings.
