Surah Az-Zumar — Ayah 25 (39:25)
كَذَّبَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡ فَأَتَىٰهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ لَا يَشۡعُرُونَ ٢٥
English translation (Saheeh International)
Those before them denied, and punishment came upon them from where they did not perceive.
Brief commentary
The nations that were before these idolaters also denied, and thus the punishment came to them suddenly from where they did not perceive so as to prepare for it by repentance.
