فَكَيْفَ إِذَآ أَصَٰبَتْهُمْ مُّصِيبَةٌ بِمَا قَدَّمَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ ثُمَّ جَآءُوكَ يَحْلِفُونَ بِٱللَّهِ إِنْ أَرَدْنَآ إِلاَّ إِحْسَٰناً وَتَوْفِيقاً
٦٢
-An-Nisâ’ ( النساء )

Al Qushairi Tafsir

[4:62] How would it be when an affliction befalls them for what their own hands have sent before them! They then come to you, swearing by God that, 'We sought only virtue and harmony'.
The beseeching of the insincere at the attacks of misfortune is not firmly rooted. It deserves no consideration because it only lasts until the tribulation has passed. The greater affliction [is being indifferent to your own shortcomings].
It is said part of the affliction is that your moment effaces you in what is not useful to you.
