87 This means I do not even suspect that Qiyamah would take place, in fact, I am certain that Qiyamah would never take place. Therefore, this would not be taken as an objection against this verse that the infidels are of the belief that the Day of Judgement would not take place.

88. From this we learn that hoping for Paradise after doing evil deeds is the way of the infidels. Do not hope to reap wheat after sowing barley.

89.This means, in the first place, Judgement Day will never take place, and if it were really to take place, then even there I would be receiving gardens. Just as I received wealth and comfort in this world, I would receive the same there as well. Receiving of wealth in this world is a sign of Divine approval.
