Do they not travel in the land, and see what was the end of those before them? They were superior to them in strength, and they tilled the earth and populated it in greater numbers than these (pagans) have done, and there came to them their Messengers with clear proofs. Surely, Allah wronged them not, but they used to wrong themselves.
Je! Hawatembei katika ardhi wakaona ulivyo kuwa mwisho wa walio kuwa kabla yao? Nao walikuwa na nguvu zaidi kuliko wao, na wakaitimbua ardhi na wakaistawisha zaidi kuliko walivyo istawisha wao. Na Mitume wao wakawajia na dalili zilizo wazi. Basi hakuwa Mwenyezi Mungu ni mwenye kuwadhulumu, lakini walikuwa wakijidhulumu nafsi zao.
