اِنْ تَكْفُرُوْا فَاِنَّ اللّٰهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنْكُمْ ۗوَلَا يَرْضٰى لِعِبَادِهِ الْكُفْرَۚ وَاِنْ تَشْكُرُوْا يَرْضَهُ لَكُمْۗ وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِّزْرَ اُخْرٰىۗ ثُمَّ اِلٰى رَبِّكُمْ مَّرْجِعُكُمْ فَيُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُوْنَۗ اِنَّهٗ عَلِيْمٌ ۢبِذَاتِ الصُّدُوْرِ  ( الزمر: ٧ )

Sahih International:

If you disbelieve – indeed, Allah is Free from need of you. And He does not approve for His servants disbelief. And if you are grateful, He approves [i.e., likes] it for you; and no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you about what you used to do. Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts. (Az-Zumar [39] : 7)

1 Mufti Taqi Usmani

If you disbelieve, then, Allah does not need you at all, however He does not like for His servants to be disbelievers; and if you are grateful, He will like it for you. No one will bear the burden of someone else. Then, to your Lord is your return; so He will tell you about what you used to do. He is aware of whatever lies in the hearts.
