﴿ ۞ وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَٰهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرٍّۢ لَّلَجُّوا۟ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ ﴾

“And even were We to show them mercy and remove whatever distress might befall them [in this life], they would still persist in their overweening arrogance, blindly stumbling to and fro.”

ولو رحمناهم وكشفنا عنهم ما بهم مِن قحط وجوع لَتمادوا في الكفر والعناد، يتحيَّرون ويتخبطون.
