And already had those before them denied, and how [terrible] was My reproach.
Al-Mukhtasar fi Tafsir
Verily, the nations that came before these idolaters rejected, and so the punishment of Allah descended upon them after they insisted in their disbelief and rejection, so how was My disavowal of them? Verily, it was a severe disavowal.
