The Holy Quran 67:17 — Surah Al-Mulk
Arabic text
أَمْ أَمِنتُم مَّن فِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ أَن يُرْسِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ حَاصِبًا ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ كَيْفَ نَذِيرِ
Translation
Or do you have no fear that He in the heavens should send a devastating windstorm against you? Soon (if you are destined to suffer punishment in this world,) you shall come to know how (true) My warnings are. (However, if you are not destined to suffer punishment in this world for your kufr and sins, you shall certainly see it in the Aakhirah.)
Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani
Allah's punishment can come at any time: that is, walk about the earth by all means and earn your provision, but do not forget Allah; otherwise He has power to send a violent storm upon you or rain down stones upon you. Then what will you do? All your running about will be left for nothing.
