(Hath not the story) the event (reached you) O people of Mecca (of those who disbelieved of old) of the nations who were before, how We dealt with them (and so did taste the ill effects of their conduct) and so did taste the punishment they deserved in the life of the world by being chastised and destroyed, (and theirs will be a painful doom) in the Hereafter.
- 64:55
أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَأُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ قَبْلُ فَذَاقُوا وَبَالَ أَمْرِهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
Has not the account of those who disbelieved before come to you, who tasted the torment of their action, and for whom is grievous punishment?
