40:21
۞ أَوَلَمْ
يَسِيرُوا۟
فِى
ٱلْأَرْضِ
فَيَنظُرُوا۟
كَيْفَ
كَانَ
عَـٰقِبَةُ
ٱلَّذِينَ
كَانُوا۟
مِن
قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ
كَانُوا۟
هُمْ
أَشَدَّ
مِنْهُمْ
قُوَّةًۭ
وَءَاثَارًۭا
فِى
ٱلْأَرْضِ
فَأَخَذَهُمُ
ٱللَّهُ
بِذُنُوبِهِمْ
وَمَا
كَانَ
لَهُم
مِّنَ
ٱللَّهِ
مِن
وَاقٍۢ

Have they not travelled through the land and seen how those who lived before them met their end? They were stronger than them and made a more impressive mark on the land, yet God destroyed them for their sins- they had no one to defend them against Him-
M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
