The Holy Quran 10:47 — Surah Yunus

Arabic text

وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولٌ ۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ رَسُولُهُمْ قُضِىَ بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْقِسْطِ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ

Translation

For every nation there was a Rasool (who brought the message of Towheed to them). So when their Rasool came to them (and they rejected his message), their matter was decided with justice (they were punished because of their own wrongdoing after sufficient warnings had been given to them) and they were not oppressed (there was always a good reason for their punishment).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

A messenger was sent to every nation: previously the mention was of this ummah (community) and its noble Messenger ﷺ. Now the general law for all peoples and nations is set out: to every group and community were sent those who convey the commands of Allah, who are called “messengers”, so that Allah’s proof may be completed.
