Transliteration:( Am lakum aymaanun 'alainaa baalighatun ilaa yawmil qiyaamati inna lakum lamaa tahkumoon )
"Or, have you received from Us an agreement confirmed by an oath extending to the Day of Resurrection, that you shall surely have what you order?"
In this verse, Allah addresses the disbelievers and questions their claims, asking if they have been given some special agreement or oath from Allah that guarantees them Paradise, regardless of their actions.
Allah makes it clear that no such promise has been made to them. They cannot assume that they will be granted Paradise just because of their worldly status or claims. Hope of Paradise, after sinning, is a misguided belief held by the disbelievers. True remorse for sin should be accompanied by the hope of Allah’s mercy, not entitlement to Paradise.
Despite their infidelity, the disbelievers still maintain the false hope of Paradise and Divine mercy. This highlights the arrogance and ignorance of those who believe they can be guaranteed salvation without truly following Allah’s guidance.
