﴿ وَكَأَيِّن مِّن قَرْيَةٍ هِىَ أَشَدُّ قُوَّةًۭ مِّن قَرْيَتِكَ ٱلَّتِىٓ أَخْرَجَتْكَ أَهْلَكْنَٰهُمْ فَلَا نَاصِرَ لَهُمْ ﴾

“And how many a community of greater power than this thy community which has driven thee out, [O Muhammad,] have We destroyed, with none to succour them!”

(And how many a township) how many inhabitants of townships (stronger) physically and numerically (than thy township (O Muhammad)) i.e. Mecca (which hath cast thee out) whose inhabitants caused you to move to Medina, (have We destroyed) when they rejected faith, (and they had no helper) they had no one to save them from Allah's chastisement!
