- Allah sekali-kali tidak akan membiarkan orang-orang yang beriman dalam keadaan kamu sekarang ini, sehingga Dia menyisihkan yang buruk (munafik) dari yang baik (mukmin). Dan Allah sekali-kali tidak akan memperlihatkan kepada kamu hal-hal yang ghaib, akan tetapi Allah memilih siapa yang dikehendaki-Nya di antara rasul-rasul-Nya. Karena itu berimanlah kepada Allah dan rasul-rasul-Nya; dan jika kamu beriman dan bertakwa, maka bagimu pahala yang besar.

And let not those who disbelieve ever think that [because] We extend their time [of enjoyment] it is better for them. We only extend it for them so that they may increase in sin, and for them is a humiliating punishment.
Next · Ali 'Imran 3:180And let not those who [greedily] withhold what Allah has given them of His bounty ever think that it is better for them. Rather, it is worse for them.
