Allah gives respite to the oppressors and the wrongdoers
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Indeed, Allah grants respite to the wrongdoer until, when He seizes him, He does not let him escape.” Then he recited: “And thus is the seizing of your Lord when He seizes the towns while they are wrongdoing. Indeed, His seizing is painful and severe.”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيُمْلِي لِلظَّالِمِ حَتَّى إِذَا أَخَذَهُ لَمْ يُفْلِتْهُ»، قَالَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ﴿وَكَذَلِكَ أَخْذُ رَبِّكَ إِذَا أَخَذَ الْقُرَى وَهِىَ ظَالِمَةٌ إِنَّ أَخْذَهُ أَلِيمٌ شَدِيدٌ﴾»*.
