وَكَمۡ قَصَمۡنَا مِن قَرۡيَةٖ كَانَتۡ ظَالِمَةٗ وَأَنشَأۡنَا بَعۡدَهَا قَوۡمًا ءَاخَرِينَ ١١

And how many a city which was unjust1 have We shattered and produced after it another people.
- - i.e., its inhabitants persisting in wrongdoing.
Brief commentary
There are many towns which I destroyed due to their injustice through disbelief, and I created other people after them.
