﴿ وَإِذَا مَسَّ ٱلنَّاسَ ضُرٌّۭ دَعَوْا۟ رَبَّهُم مُّنِيبِينَ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ إِذَآ أَذَاقَهُم مِّنْهُ رَحْمَةً إِذَا فَرِيقٌۭ مِّنْهُم بِرَبِّهِمْ يُشْرِكُونَ ﴾
“NOW [thus it is:] when affliction befalls men, they cry out unto their Sustainer, turning unto Him [for help]; but as soon as He lets them taste of His grace, lo! some of them [begin to] ascribe to other powers a share in their Sustainer’s divinity,”
(And when harm) hardship (toucheth men) the people of Mecca (they cry unto their Lord) to relieve them from the hardship, (turning to Him in repentance) and supplications; (then, when they have tasted of His mercy) of His blessing, (behold! some of them) some of the disbelievers (attribute partners to their Lord) their consider idols His partners.
