Translation

Is [because] We hasten for them good things? Rather, they do not perceive.

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

Do these self-conceited groups think that whatever wealth and offspring we bestow them with in the world, is a prelude of good they deserve? It is not as they think; I am only giving it to them as respite, gradually leading them into destruction, but they do not realise it.
