Translation and commentary
Tafheem-ul-Quran
پھر کیوں نہ اُن قوموں میں جو تم سے پہلے گزر چکی ہیں ایسے اہل خیر موجود رہے جو لوگوں کو زمین میں فساد برپا کرنے سے روکتے؟ ایسے لوگ نکلے بھی تو بہت کم، جن کو ہم نے ان قوموں میں سے بچا لیا، ورنہ ظالم لوگ تو انہی مزوں کے پیچھے پڑے رہے جن کے سامان انہیں فراوانی کے ساتھ دیے گئے تھے اور وہ مجرم بن کر رہے
