It is God’s mercy that the sinners in the world are left to themselves with the respite to amend their ways otherwise every one on earth would long have been perished if God had dealt everyone with His strict justice. That is why the holy Ahlul-Bait (a) have taught us to be ever prayerful saying ‘O Lord! Deal us with thy Mercy and deal Thou not with Thy Justice.
Surah An - Nahl, Ayat 16:61
Was God to seize people immediately for their injustice, no living creature would be left on earth. He gives them respite for an appointed time. When their term is over, they will not be able to change the inevitable.16:61
Surah Al - Fatir, Ayat 35:45
Were God to punish people for their deeds immediately, not one creature would have survived on earth. However, He has given them a respite for an appointed time and when their term comes to an end, let it be known that God watches over His servants. (35:45)
Surah An-Nisa, Ayat 17-18
Whoever desires (only) the enjoyment of this life will receive it if We want it to be so. Then We will make Hell his reward wherein he will suffer, despised and driven away from Our mercy (17:18).
