أَفَأَمِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَكَرُوا۟ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتِ أَن يَخْسِفَ ٱللَّهُ بِهِمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ أَوْ يَأْتِيَهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ
Then, do those who have planned evil deeds feel secure that Allah will not cause the earth to swallow them or that the punishment will not come upon them from where they do not perceive?

(Are they who plan ill deeds) associating partners with Allah (then secure that Allah will not cause the earth to swallow them, or that the doom will not come on them whence they know not) it will come?
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
Do they feel secure those who have schemed evil schemes against the Prophet s at the Council Assembly schemes such as detaining him killing him or banishing him as mentioned in sūrat al-Anfāl Q. 830 that God will not cause the earth to swallow them as God did with Qārūn Q. 2881 or that the chastisement will not come upon them whence they are not aware of? that is in a way which would not occur to them. Indeed they were destroyed at Badr even though they had never anticipated it.
