ولو يواخذ الله الناس بما كسبوا ما ترك على ظهرها من دابة ولاكن يوخرهم الى اجل مسمى فاذا جاء اجلهم فان الله كان بعباده بصيرا ٤٥
وَلَوْ يُؤَاخِذُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلنَّاسَ بِمَا كَسَبُوا۟ مَا تَرَكَ عَلَىٰ ظَهْرِهَا مِن دَآبَّةٍۢ وَلَـٰكِن يُؤَخِّرُهُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍۢ مُّسَمًّۭى ۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ أَجَلُهُمْ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ بِعِبَادِهِۦ بَصِيرًۢا ٤٥
وَلَوۡ
يُؤَاخِذُ
ٱللَّهُ
ٱلنَّاسَ
بِمَا
كَسَبُواْ
مَا
تَرَكَ
عَلَىٰ
ظَهۡرِهَا

وَلَٰكِن

أَجَلٖ
مُّسَمّٗىۖ
فَإِذَا
جَآءَ
أَجَلُهُمۡ
فَإِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
كَانَ
بِعِبَادِهِۦ
بَصِيرَۢا

If Allah were to punish people ˹immediately˺ for what they have committed, He would not have left a single living being on earth. But He delays them for an appointed term. And when their time arrives, then surely Allah is All-Seeing of His servants.

You are reading a tafsir for the group of verses 35:44 to 35:45

Man has been given freedom of action in the world, but he misuses it. His wrongs are so many that if he were caught hold of immediately for his wrongdoings, the entire human race would be wiped out from the world. But, human freedom is purely for the purpose of putting man to the test, and there is a period fixed for this. The period for an individual lasts till his death and the period fixed for humanity as a whole is till Doomsday. For this reason, the human race is still extant in the world. However, just as it is a fact that God does not seize hold of anybody before the expiry of the trial period, it must also be seriously considered that after the expiry of the trial period, He will definitely do so and nobody will escape the trial.

He has revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺ the Book in truth, confirming what came before it, as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
