And obviously,the message of Islam hasn't reached everyone in their lifetime, some have died without ever hearing about Islam so no they won't enter hell straight away as this wouldn't be fair and God is the Just.
But if the message of Islam has reached them yet they refuse to follow the correct path i.e Islam yet they are good people God will bless them in their life on Earth by giving them money, kids, long life or whateer it is they want but they are unlikely to not go to hell because they are doing something very very wrong- they are not acknowledging the One God who created them, sustains them gives them food shelter clothing etc an that is even from a moral perspective wrong
By being a Christian for example, youre not acknowedging the ONE God who is All-Powerful, All-Hearing, All-Seeing etc, because of the trinity which attributes Godly attributes to a human being i.e Jesus
And at the end of the day, God is testing who will believe in the message (that He is One) without seeing Him
Ok, from that I've determined that allah isn't worthy of worship even if he exists. So you can pack your bags, even if you prove allah's existence you wouldn't have converted me.
In regards to some people, God says:
"And it is all the same for them whether you warn them or do not warn them - they will not believe.You can only warn one who follows the message and fears the Most Merciful unseen. So give him good tidings of forgiveness and noble reward"
