And there is no city but that We will destroy it before the Day of Resurrection or punish it with a severe punishment. That has ever been in the Register inscribed.
Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(17:58) There is no habitation which We shall not destroy before the Day of Resurrection or punish with a severe chastisement. *66 This has been ordained in the Eternal Record.
Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
*66)
This is to remove the delusion of the disbelievers that their habitations were immune from danger or chastisement. This verse warns that every habitation will be destroyed as a matter of course or by Allah's chastisement.
