But Allah never grants respite to a soul when its appointed time has come. And Allah is fully aware [16] of what you do.

[16] That is, Allah knows very well that even if, hypothetically, you were given some respite, you would still act stingily. You would not give charity, because the habits that have been ingrained throughout life do not change with a little extra time.
