15. Their example is like those who tasted the consequences of their deeds a short while [21] before them, and for them is a painful punishment.
[21] A short while ago, the Jews of the tribe of Banu Qaynuqa were expelled with utter humiliation and disgrace, and these Jews of Banu Nadir had witnessed it with their own eyes. The details of this have already been mentioned in the footnotes of verse 2 of this very Surah. And the disbelievers had received the punishment for their deeds a short while ago in the Battle of Badr. This was the punishment they received in this world, while the painful punishment in the Hereafter still remains as it is.
