Quran 30:10 — The Romans (Al-Room)

The consequences for those who committed evil had to be evil. That is because they rejected GOD's revelations, and ridiculed them.

[30:9] Have they not roamed the earth and noted the consequences for those who preceded them? They used to be more powerful, more prosperous, and more productive on earth. Their messengers went to them with clear signs. Consequently, GOD was not the One who wronged them, they are the ones who wronged their own souls.

[30:11] GOD is the One who initiates the creation and repeats it. Ultimately, you will be returned to Him.
