مُحَمَّد : ١٠

  • أَفَلَمۡ Do not
  • يَسِيرُواْ they travel
  • فِي in
  • ٱلۡأَرۡضِ the earth
  • فَيَنظُرُواْ and see
  • كَيۡفَ how
  • كَانَ was
  • عَٰقِبَةُ (the) end
  • ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those
  • مِن before them
  • قَبۡلِهِمۡۖ before them
  • دَمَّرَ Allah destroyed
  • ٱللَّهُ Allah destroyed
  • عَلَيۡهِمۡۖ [over] them
  • وَلِلۡكَٰفِرِينَ and for the disbelievers
  • أَمۡثَٰلُهَا its likeness
Have they not traveled through the land and seen how was the end of those before them? Allāh destroyed [everything] over them,1 and for the disbelievers is something comparable.
Footnotes
1 - i.e., destroyed them and all they owned.
Have they not travelled in the land to see the nature of the consequence for those who were before them? God destroyed them - He destroyed them, their children and their possessions; and [a fate] the like thereof will be for the disbelievers, that is to say, the like of the fate of those before them.
