﴿ وَسَكَنتُمْ فِى مَسَٰكِنِ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوٓا۟ أَنفُسَهُمْ وَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمْ كَيْفَ فَعَلْنَا بِهِمْ وَضَرَبْنَا لَكُمُ ٱلْأَمْثَالَ ﴾

“And yet, you dwelt in the dwelling-places of those who had sinned against their own selves [before your time], and it was made obvious to you how We had dealt with them: for We have set forth unto you many a parable [of sin, resurrection and divine retribution]."”

(And (have ye not) dwelt in the dwellings of those who wronged themselves (of old)) through idolatry and denial without take heed from their destruction (and (hath it not) become plain to you how We dealt with them) in this worldly life, (and made) struck (examples for you) in the Qur'an of all sorts: of promises, of threats, of mercy and of chastisement?
