Clear Quran
Ghafir · 40:22
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَانَتْ تَأْتِيهِمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ فَكَفَرُوا فَأَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُ قَوِيٌّ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ
That was because their messengers used to come to them with clear proofs, but they disbelieved. So Allah seized them. Surely He is All-Powerful, severe in punishment.
