أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَؤُا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن قَبْلُ فَذَاقُوا۟ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌۭ

سُورَةُ التَّغَابُنِ
English — Sahih International
Has there not come to you the news of those who disbelieved before? So they tasted the bad consequence of their affair, and they will have a painful punishment.
اردو — مودودی
کیا تمہیں اُن لوگوں کی کوئی خبر نہیں پہنچی جنہوں نے اِس سے پہلے کفر کیا اور پھر اپنی شامت اعمال کا مزہ چکھ لیا؟ اور آگے اُن کے لیے ایک دردناک عذاب ہے
Bahasa Indonesia — Kemenag
Apakah belum datang kepadamu (hai orang-orang kafir) berita orang-orang kafir terdahulu. Maka mereka telah merasakan akibat yang buruk dari perbuatan mereka dan mereka memperoleh azab yang pedih.
Ibn Kathir
A Warning delivered through mentioning the End of the Disbelieving Nations
Informing about the past nations and the torment and disciplinary lessons that they suffered because of opposing the Messengers and denying the truth. Allah says;
أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَؤُاْ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِن قَبْلُ
(Has not the news reached you of those who disbelieved aforetime) meaning, information about them and what happened to them,
فَذَاقُواْ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهِمْ
(And so they tasted the evil result of their disbelief.) They tasted the evil consequences of their denial and sinful actions. And it refers to the punishment and humiliation they received in the life of the world,
وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
(and theirs will be a painful torment.) in the Hereafter, added to the torment they received in this life. Allah explained why;
ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُ كَانَت تَّأْتِيهِمْ رُسُلُهُم بِالْبَيِّنَـتِ
(That was because there came to them their Messengers with Bayyinat,) supporting arguments, evidence, and clear proofs,
فَقَالُواْ أَبَشَرٌ يَهْدُونَنَا
(but they said:"Shall mere men guide us") They discounted and dismissed the possibility that the Message would be sent to a human and that their guidance would come by the hands of a man like themselves,
فَكَفَرُواْ وَتَوَلَّواْ
(So they disbelieved and turned away.) they denied the truth and turned away from abiding by it,
وَّاسْتَغْنَى اللَّهُ
(But Allah was not in need.) of them,
وَاللَّهُ غَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌ
(And Allah is not need, Worthy of all praise.)
المُيَسَّر
ألم يأتكم- أيها المشركون- خبر الذين كفروا من الأمم الماضية قبلكم، إذ حلَّ بهم سوء عاقبة كفرهم وسوء أفعالهم في الدنيا، ولهم في الآخرة عذاب أليم موجع؟
