Transliteration:( Liyakfuroo bimaa aatainaahum; fatamatta'oo, fasawfa ta'lamoon )
"So that they may be ungrateful for what We have given them. Enjoy yourselves for a while, but you will soon come to know."
This means they are ungrateful for the blessings and favours that Allah has granted them. Instead of showing gratitude, they revert to shirk and misuse their comforts.
Allah says to them: “Enjoy yourselves for a short while”, meaning your worldly life and its pleasures are temporary. But very soon, in the Hereafter, you will come to know the consequences of your ingratitude and denial.
