and if allah had destroyed men for their iniquity he would not leave on the earth a single creature but he respites them till an appointed time so when their doom will come they shall not be able to delay an hour nor can they bring on .
ولو يؤاخذ الله الناس بظلمهم ما ترك عليها من دابة ولكن يؤخرهم إلى أجل مسمى فإذا جاء أجلهم لا يستأخرون ساعة ولا يستقدمون
