Yunus • EN-TAFSIR-IBN-ABBAS
﴿ ۞ وَلَوْ يُعَجِّلُ ٱللَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ ٱلشَّرَّ ٱسْتِعْجَالَهُم بِٱلْخَيْرِ لَقُضِىَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَجَلُهُمْ ۖ فَنَذَرُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَرْجُونَ لِقَآءَنَا فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ ﴾
“NOW IF GOD were to hasten for human beings the ill [which they deserve by their sinning] in the same manner as they [themselves] would hasten [the coming to them of what they consider to be] good, their end would indeed come forthwith! But We leave them alone [for a while] -all those who do not believe that they are destined to meet Us: [We leave them alone] in their overweening arrogance, blindly stumbling to and fro.”
(If Allah were to hasten on for men the ill) they pray for (as they would hasten on the good) they ask for, (their respite would already have expired) they would already be destroyed. (But We suffer those who look not for the meeting with Us) We leave those who do not fear resurrection after death (to wander blindly on in their contumacy) in their disbelief and error.
