(மனிதர்களே!) உங்களுக்கு முன்னிருந்த எத்தனையோ தலைமுறையினர்களை, அவர்கள் அநியாயம் செய்த போது நிச்சயமாக நாம் அழித்திருக்கின்றோம்; அவர்களிடம் அவர்களுடைய (இறை) தூதர்கள் தெளிவான அத்தாட்சிகளைக் கொண்டு வந்தார்கள்; எனினும் அவர்கள் நம்பவில்லை - குற்றம் செய்யும் மக்களுக்கு நாம் இவ்வாறு கூலி கொடுக்கின்றோம்.

තවද නුඹලාට පෙර විසූ පරම්පරාවන් ඔවුන් අපරාධ කළ කල්හි සැබැවින් ම අපි විනාශ කළෙමු. තවද ඔවුන් වෙත ඔවුන්ගේ ධර්ම දූතවරු පැහැදිලි සංඥා සමඟ පැමිණියහ. එහෙත් ඔවුහු විශ්වාස කරන්නට නො වූහ. වැරදිකාරී ජනයාට අපි ප්‍රතිඵල පිරිනමනුයේ එලෙස ය.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
اور ہم نے تم سے پہلے بہت سے گروہوں کو ہلاک کردیا جب کہ انہوں نے ﻇلم کیا حاﻻنکہ ان کے پاس ان کے پیغمبر بھی دﻻئل لے کر آئے، اور وه ایسے کب تھے کہ ایمان لے آتے؟ ہم مجرم لوگوں کو ایسی ہی سزا دیا کرتے ہیں۔

本当にわれはあなたがた以前にも,かれらが不義を行ったために,幾多の民族を滅ぼした。使徒たちが明証をかれらに与えたのだが,かれらは信じようとはしなかった。このようにわれは,罪を犯した民に報いる。

在你们之前曾有许多世代,他们族中的使者既昭示了他们许多明证,而他们仍行不义,不肯信道,我就毁灭了他们,我这样报应犯罪的民众。

Tafsir of 10:13

The Admonition held in the Destruction of the Previous Generations Allah tells us about what happened to past generations when they belied the Messengers ﷺ and the clear signs and proofs the latter brought to them.

Muslim recorded that Abu Nadrah reported from Abu Sa`id that he said: "Allah's Messenger ﷺ said: «إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا حُلْوَةٌ خَضِرَةٌ، وَإِنَّ اللهَ مُسْتَخْلِفُكُمْ فِيهَا، فَنَاظِرٌ كَيْفَ تَعْمَلُونَ، فَاتَّقُوا الدُّنْيَا وَاتَّقُوا النِّسَاءَ، فَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ فِتْنَةِ بِنَي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانَتْ فِي النِّسَاء» (The world is indeed sweet and green; and verily Allah is going to install you generations after generations in it in order to see how you act.

Ibn Jarir reported from `Abdur-Rahman from Ibn Abi Layla that `Awf bin Malik said to Abu Bakr: "In a dream, I saw a rope hanging from the sky and Allah's Messenger ﷺ was being raised. The rope was suspended again and Abu Bakr was raised.…
