* تفسير Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs

{ وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِّن قَرْنٍ هُمْ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُم بَطْشاً فَنَقَّبُواْ فِي ٱلْبِلاَدِ هَلْ مِن مَّحِيصٍ }

(And how many a generation) past generation (We destroyed before them) before your folk, (who were mightier than these) than your folk (in prowess) in physical strength (so that they overran the lands!) they moved about and travelled for their trade (Had they any place of refuge) or escape from Our chastisement? And it is also said this means: is there anyone of them left?
