(Ayah 25) {كَذَّبَ الَّذِيْنَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ … :} To warn those who deny the Noble Messenger (peace be upon him), it is stated that people before them also denied the prophets, so punishment came upon them from where they could not even imagine. For example, due to an earthquake, the roofs of their houses fell upon them. (See An-Nahl: 26) Some were struck by a wind that pelted stones, some were seized by a mighty blast, some were swallowed by the earth, and some were drowned. (See Al-Ankabut: 40)
