Al-Qasas 28:78 قال انما اوتيته على علم عندي اولم يعلم ان الله قد اهلك من قبله من القرون من هو اشد منه قوة واكثر جمعا ولا يسال عن ذنوبهم المجرمون ٧٨
قَالَ
إِنَّمَآ
أُوتِيتُهُۥ
عَلَىٰ
عِلۡمٍ
عِندِيٓۚ
أَوَلَمۡ
يَعۡلَمۡ
أَنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
قَدۡ
أَهۡلَكَ
مِن
قَبۡلِهِۦ
مِنَ
ٱلۡقُرُونِ
مَنۡ
هُوَ
أَشَدُّ
مِنۡهُ
قُوَّةٗ
وَأَكۡثَرُ
جَمۡعٗاۚ
وَلَا
يُسۡـَٔلُ
عَن
ذُنُوبِهِمُ
ٱلۡمُجۡرِمُونَ

There will be no need for the wicked to be asked about their sins.2

He said, "I was only given it because of knowledge I have." Did he not know that Allāh had destroyed before him of generations those who were greater than him in power and greater in accumulation [of wealth]? But the criminals, about their sins, will not be asked.1
