The Forgiver - 40:31 Like the case of Noah, Ad, Thamud and those after them. Surely Allah does not wish injustice to the servants.
What is the intention?
The Stories/28:59 Your Lord does not destroy a people until He sends to their center a messenger who recites to them Our Verses. And We never destroy a people whose people are not oppressors.

The Poets/26:208 We did not destroy any city without a warner.
