Surah Az-Zukhruf — Ayah 29 (43:29)

English translation (Saheeh International)

However, I gave enjoyment to these [people of Makkah] and their fathers¹ until there came to them the truth and a clear Messenger.²

2. i.e., one who is obvious with a clear message, meaning Muḥammad (ﷺ).

Brief commentary

I did not hasten the destruction upon these rejecting idolaters. Rather, I let them enjoy remaining in the world and I let their forefathers do the same, until the Qur’ān and a clear Messenger: Muhammad (peace be upon him) came to them.
