No, but if only you knew the reality of what awaits those - Surah At-Takathur ayat 5 in Tafsir

﴿كـَلَّا لَوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عِلۡمَ ٱلۡيَقِينِ ﴾
[التَّكاثُر: 5]

No, but if only you knew the reality of what awaits those whose actions and dispositions do not accord with the divine standard, you would not succumb to illusions

﴿كلا لو تعلمون علم اليقين﴾ [التَّكاثُر: 5]

Nay, would that you knew with certainty of knowledge (what your attitude will lead to, you would never have acted the way you do)
