Hafiz soon
Hud · 11:8
And if We hold back from them the punishment for a limited time, they will surely say, "What detains it?" Unquestionably, on the Day it comes to them, it will not be averted from them, and they will be enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

Grammar rules
Conjunction وَ (and)
وَلَئِنْ (And if) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Lesson 4 · ParticlesEmphatic لَ (indeed)
وَلَئِنْ (And if) starts with لَ for emphasis — it's like saying "indeed!" or "certainly!".
We add "indeed" or "certainly" to show the emphasis.
Lesson 15 · إنّ and SistersConditional (if/when)
وَلَئِنْ (And if) introduces a condition — "if this happens, then that happens".
We translate it as "if" or "when".
