Translation

And thus is the seizure of your Lord when He seizes the cities while they are committing wrong. Indeed, His seizure is painful and severe.

Tafsir

Such, like that seizing, is the seizing of your Lord when He seizes the towns, meaning its inhabitants, while they are doing wrong, by way of sins: in other words, nothing can avail them in any way when He seizes them. Truly His seizing is painful, severe. The two Shaykhs [Bukhaaree and Muslim] reported [by way of an isnaad] from Aboo Moosaa al-Ash'aree that he said, 'The Prophet may peace and salutation be upon him said, "God gives [extended] respite to the evildoer, but when He seizes him there is no escape for him", whereupon the Prophet may peace and salutation be upon him recited the verse: Such is the seizing of your Lord [Q. 11:102, above]'.
