The Holy Quran 59:15 — Surah Al-Hashr

Arabic text

كَمَثَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ قَرِيبًا ۖ ذَاقُوا۟ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

Translation

Their example (story) is like those (Jews of the Banu Qaynuqa tribe) shortly before them who tasted the consequence of their doing (for breaking their treaty with the Muslims and were exiled to a place called Adhra'aat). Theirs shall be a painful punishment.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

And before that, in the recent past, the people of Makkah were punished on the day of “Badr”.
