Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while such [trial] has not yet come to you as came to those who passed on before you? They were touched by poverty and hardship and were shaken until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said, "When is the help of Allāh?" Unquestionably, the help of Allāh is near.

Ataukah kamu mengira bahwa kamu akan masuk surga, padahal belum datang kepadamu (cobaan) seperti (yang dialami) orang-orang terdahulu sebelum kamu. Mereka ditimpa kemelaratan, penderitaan dan diguncang (dengan berbagai cobaan), sehingga Rasul dan orang-orang yang beriman bersamanya berkata, "Kapankah datang pertolongan Allah?" Ingatlah, sesungguhnya pertolongan Allah itu dekat.
