Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishTheir associating partners with Allah meant that they in fact reject Allah’s favours to them, including Allah saving them from their distress after they had called on Him alone.
It was therefore said to them: Enjoy the luxuries that you have until Allah’s penalty comes to you sooner or later.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
So (as a result of that) they deny (with ungratefulness) that (Allah's Favours) which We have bestowed on them! Then enjoy yourselves (your short stay), but you will come to know (with regrets).
