So if they deny you with regard to what you have brought then say to them ‘Your Lord has all-embracing mercy for He does not hasten to bring about your punishment — herein is a gentle summoning of them to the faith; and His might His chastisement when it comes will never be driven back from the sinning folk’.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(So if they give the lie to thee) O Muhammad regarding the prohibitions that We described to you, (say: Your Lord is a Lord of all-embracing mercy) towards the pious and sinner alike, in that He defers torment to the next life, (and His wrath) His torment (will never be withdrawn from guilty folk) the idolaters.
