وَكَمۡ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِنَ ٱلۡقُرُونِ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ نُوحٖۗ وَكَفَىٰ بِرَبِّكَ بِذُنُوبِ عِبَادِهِۦ خَبِيرَۢا بَصِيرٗا
(17) [3529]How many a generation have We destroyed after Nūḥ ˹Noah˺! [3530]Sufficient is your Lord ˹O Muhammad˺ as All-Knowledgeable, All-Seeing of the sins of His servants.
[3529] To warn against denying the Messenger and disobeying God’s command, people are notified of the numerous towns and communities that God destroyed in this life ever since Prophet Noah, the second father of humanity, whose salvaged posterity were all true Believers (cf. al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr, Ibn ʿĀshūr).
[3530] The address shifts here to Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) to assure him that God, the All-Knowledgeable, All-Seeing, is aware of the transgressions of his enemies and that they will be brought to account over them (cf. Ibn ʿĀshūr).
