Transliteration:( Wa kam qasamnaa min qaryatin kaanat zaalimatanw wa ansha' naa ba'dahaa qawman aakhareen )
18. This means these were towns of the infidels because an infidel oppresses himself and his household. Says Allah Almighty: "Undoubtedly the association with Allah is a tremendous wrong" (S31:V13).Â
19. Your condition will be the same as this, if you do not accept faith. Observe, the leaders of the Quraish did not serve the cause of Allah Almighty, as a result of which He made the poor people like the Ansaar of Madina serve Islam. Abu Jahl, etc. were destroyed in the Battle of Badr.
