Al-Hijr 15:5
SAHIHمَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَـْٔخِرُونَ
No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.
Maa tasbiqu min ummatin ajalahaa wa maa yastaakhiroon
타프시르 (주석)
<h2>Every Township has its allotted Time</h2><p>Allah is informing us that He never destroys a township until He has established evidences for it and its allotted time has ended. When the time for a nation's destruction has come, He never delays it, and He never moves its appointed time forward. This was a message and a warning to the people of Makkah, telling them to give up their Shirk, their stubbornness and disbelief for which they deserved to be destroyed.</p>
