Footnotes
1 - Their structures have been completely destroyed.
That, which is mentioned (dhaalika is the subject, the predicate of which [follows]), is [something] of the tidings of the towns, which We relate to you, O Muhammad may peace and salutation be upon him. Some of them, that is, [of] the towns, are standing, only its inhabitants having been destroyed, and some, of them, have been cut down, destroyed together with its inhabitants, such that there are no vestiges thereof, much like crops harvested with sickles.
