English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
And to each one We set forth clear similitudes; and each one We completely destroyed.
English - Five Volume Translation
And to each one We set forth clear similitudes; and each one did We utterly destroy.
Important Words:
تبرنا تتبیرا (We utterly destroyed) is the transitive form of تبر (tabira) which means, he became destroyed. تبرہ (tabbarahu) means, he destroyed him; broke him into pieces annihilated him (Lane).
Commentary:
The truth is writ large on the face of history that opposition to God’s Prophets has invariably led to the destruction of those who oppose them. There had never lived a Prophet who was not opposed and persecuted and opposition to whose mission did not result in the ruin of his persecutors. Yet such is the tragedy of human affairs that opponents of the Prophets of God never benefit from the fate of their predecessors. In their own time every people to whom a Divine Messenger was sent traversed the same road which had led to ruin those who had opposed their Prophets before them. At first the people of the Holy Prophet also opposed and persecuted him and did not benefit from the example of the opponents of the former Prophets and consequently a part of them met the fate of their counterparts.
