தீமையான சூழ்ச்சிகளைச் செய்யும் அவர்களைப் பூமி விழுங்கும்படி அல்லாஹ் செய்யமாட்டான் என்றோ, அல்லது அவர்கள் அறியாப் புறத்திலிருந்து அவர்களை வேதனை வந்து அடையாதென்றோ அவர்கள் அச்சந்தீர்ந்து இருக்கின்றார்களா?

නපුරුකම් කුමන්ත්‍රණය කළවුන් අල්ලාහ් ඔවුන්ව මහපොළොවෙහි ගිලා බැස්සවීම පිළිබඳව හෝ ඔවුන් නො සිතූ අයුරින් දඬුවම ඔවුන් වෙත පැමිණීම ගැන හෝ ඔවුන් නිර්භියව සිටිත් ද?

使用诡计以作恶者,难道不怕真主使他们随地面而陷落,或刑罚从他们料想不到的地方来临他们吗?

Tafsir of 16:45

How the Guilty can feel Secure Allah informs us about His patience, and how He delays the punishment for the sinners who do evil things and call others to do likewise, plotting to call others to do evil - even though He is able to make the earth swallow them or to bring His wrath upon them. مِنْ حَيْثُ لاَ يَشْعُرُونَ (from where they do not perceive it), meaning in such a way that they do not know where it comes from. As Allah says: أَءَمِنتُمْ مَّن فِى السَّمَآءِ أَن يَخْسِفَ بِكُمُ الاٌّرْضَ فَإِذَا هِىَ تَمُورُ - أَمْ أَمِنتُمْ مِّن فِى السَّمَآءِ أَن يُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ حَصِباً فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ كَيْفَ نَذِيرِ (Do you feel secure that He Who is over the heaven (Allah), will not cause you to sink into the earth, when it quakes Or do you feel secure that He Who is over the heaven (Allah), will not send a storm of stones upon you Then you shall know how My warning really is.) (67:16-17). أَوْ يَأْخُذَهُمْ فِى تَقَلُّبِهِمْ (Or that He may punish them in the midst of their going to and fro) meaning, when they are busy with their daily business, travel, and other distracting activities.…
