Then We fulfilled Our promise to them: We saved them4 and those whom We willed, and destroyed those who transgressed all bounds.

Notes

[4] After they conveyed the message.

Then We fulfilled to them the promise. So We saved them and those whom We willed, but We destroyed Al-Musrifûn (i.e. disbelievers in Allah, in His Messengers, extravagants, transgressors of Allâh’s limits by committing crimes, oppressions, polytheism and sins).

Then we fulfilled the promise unto them. So we delivered them and whom We would, and We destroyed the prodigals.

In the end We fulfilled to them Our Promise, and We saved them and those whom We pleased, but We destroyed those who transgressed beyond bounds.

Then We made Our promise good to them, so We delivered them and those whom We pleased, and We destroyed the extravagant.

Thereafter We sincerely (made good Our) promise to them; so We delivered them and whomever We decided (to deliver) and We caused the extravagant (ones) to perish.
