وَإِن مِّن قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا نَحْنُ مُهْلِكُوهَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُوهَا عَذَابًۭا شَدِيدًۭا ۚ كَانَ ذَٰلِكَ فِى ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مَسْطُورًۭا ٥٨
There is not a township but We shall destroy it ere the Day of Resurrection, or punish it with dire punishment. That is set forth in the Book (of Our decrees).
And there is no city but that We will destroy it before the Day of Resurrection or punish it with a severe punishment. That has ever been in the Register inscribed.
There is not a town but We shall destroy it or upon which We shall inflict severe chastisement before the Day of Resurrection. This is written down in the Eternal Book (of Allah).
هَذَا إِخْبَارٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِأَنَّهُ قَدْ حتَمَ وَقَضَى بِمَا قَدْ كَتَبَهُ عِنْدَهُ فِي اللَّوْحِ الْمَحْفُوظِ: أَنَّهُ مَا مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ إِلَّا سَيُهْلِكُهَا، بِأَنْ يُبِيدَ أَهْلَهَا جَمِيعَهُمْ أَوْ يُعَذِّبَهُمْ ﴿عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا﴾ إِمَّا بِقَتْلٍ أَوِ ابْتِلَاءٍ بِمَا يَشَاءُ، وَإِنَّمَا يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ بِسَبَبِ ذُنُوبِهِمْ وَخَطَايَاهُمْ، كَمَا قَالَ عَنِ الْأُمَمِ الْمَاضِينَ: ﴿وَمَا ظَلَمْنَاهُمْ وَلَكِنْ ظَلَمُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ﴾ [هُودٍ: ١٠١] وَقَالَ تَعَالَى: ﴿وَكَأَيِّنْ مِنْ قَرْيَةٍ عَتَتْ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهَا وَرُسُلِهِ فَحَاسَبْنَاهَا حِسَابًا شَدِيدًا وَعَذَّبْنَاهَا عَذَابًا نُكْرًا * فَذَاقَتْ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهَا وَكَانَ عَاقِبَةُ أَمْرِهَا خُسْرًا﴾ [الطلاق: ٧، ٨] .
