have they not travelled through the land and seen what was the end of those who have gone before them? they were stronger than them and made a more impressive mark upon the land yet god destroyed them for their sins they had no one to defend them against him that was because their messengers came to them with clear signs but they rejected them. so god seized them he is powerful severe in punishment.
أولم يسيروا في الأرض فينظروا كيف كان عاقبة الذين كانوا من قبلهم كانوا هم أشد منهم قوة وآثارا في الأرض فأخذهم الله بذنوبهم وما كان لهم من الله من واق ذلك بأنهم كانت تأتيهم رسلهم بالبينات فكفروا فأخذهم الله إنه قوي شديد العقاب
