﴿ فَإِن زَلَلْتُم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَآءَتْكُمُ ٱلْبَيِّنَٰتُ فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ ﴾
“And if you should stumble after all evidence of the truth has come unto you, then know that, verily, God is almighty, wise.”
But if you slip after the clear proofs have come to you know then that God is Mighty Wise. A single slip after the disclosure of clear proofs is uglier by far than the many slips committed before this disclosure. Those who are known to be treacherous cannot be trusted. When the tribulation for the worst sins descends they will be completely uprooted.
