and if allah were to punish men for that which they earned he would not leave a moving creature on the surface of the earth but he gives them respite to an appointed term and when their term comes then verily allah is ever allseer of his servants.
ولو يؤاخذ الله الناس بما كسبوا ما ترك على ظهرها من دابة ولكن يؤخرهم إلى أجل مسمى فإذا جاء أجلهم فإن الله كان بعباده بصيرا
