فَيَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا لَوْ أَدْخَلْتَنَا النَّارَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُرِيَنَا مَا أَرَيْتَنَا مِنْ ثَوَابِ مَا أَعْدَدْتَ لِأَوْلِيَائِكَ كَانَ أَهْوَنَ عَلَيْنَا
They will say: Our Lord, if You had put us into the Fire before showing us what You showed us of the reward You prepared for Your close ones, it would have been easier for us.
لِأَوْلِيَائِكَ — for Your allies. A preposition 'for' fused to a noun 'Your close ones' that carries 'Your' as possessor, the suffix pointing to God. The preposition marks the beneficiaries the reward was readied for.
