And if We had destroyed them with a torment before this (i.e. Messenger Muhammad SAW and the Quran), they would surely have said: "Our Lord! If only You had sent us a Messenger, we should certainly have followed Your Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), before we were humiliated and disgraced."
Na lau kuwa tuliwaangamiza kwa adhabu kabla yake, wangeli sema: Ewe Mola wetu Mlezi! Kwa nini usituletee Mtume tukazifuata ishara zako kabla hatujadhilika na kuhizika.
