وَٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا سَنَسۡتَدۡرِجُهُم مِّنۡ حَيۡثُ لَا يَعۡلَمُونَ ١٨٢

But those who deny Our signs - We will progressively lead them [to destruction]1 from where they do not know.

1 Allāh will test them with one favor after another in spite of their disobedience, which only increases them in arrogance and sin.

Tafsir

Those who deny My signs, not having faith in them and rejecting them, I will continue to provide for them in the worldly life, not to honour them, but to lead them on gradually until they go further astray. Then they will be overtaken by the punishment when they do not expect it.
