৪১) শেষ পর্যন্ত যথাযথ সত্য অনুযায়ী একটি মহা গোলযোগ তাদেরকে ধরে ফেললো এবং আমি তাদেরকে কাদা  বানিয়ে নিক্ষেপ করলাম-দূর হয়ে যাও জালেম জাতি!
৪২) তারপর আমি তাদের পরে অন্য জাতিদের উঠিয়েছি ৷
৪৩) কোন জাতি তার সময়ের পূর্বে শেষ হয়নি এবং তার পরে টিকে থাকতে পারেনি৷

Ayat 42. Then, after them, We created other generations.

Ayat 43. No nation can anticipate their term, nor can they delay it.

Hazrat Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW] (PBUH) said, "When Allah intends to show mercy to a people, He collects their Prophet before them and makes him a herald to happiness for them in the Hereafter; and when He intends to destroy a people, He punishes them while their Prophet is alive, and destroys them while he is alive and watches them and makes him witness their destruction because they disbelieved in him and disobeyed his commands".

[Muslim Book 30, Chapter 08, Hadith # 5679] 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Muminun Ayat 43."No nation can anticipate their term" This Hadith tells us about a Divine law in respect of Prophets, which is meant to deter people from opposing the Prophet (PBUH) and commands us to follow his footsteps, so that we can benefit from his intercession on the Day of Resurrection.
