Dynamic translation
(59:2) And He it is Who expelled those of Ahlu Aqtob, who denied, from their dwellings, at the First Convocation. And you did not suppose that those (would be) expelled. Those assumed that they would prevent (the impending) apprehension sanctioned by Allah. But behold, Allah overtook them from whence they did not reckon, and delivered the Terror into their hearts. They (throw) their homes into ruin, by their own hands, and by the hands of those who Trusted. (Learn) the lesson, Oh you who have Sight!
Arabic text
(59:2) هُوَ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ مِن دِيَارِهِمْ لِأَوَّلِ الْحَشْرِ مَا ظَنَنتُمْ أَن يَخْرُجُوا وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُم مَّانِعَتُهُمْ حُصُونُهُم مِّنَ اللَّهِ فَأَتَاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَمْ يَحْتَسِبُوا وَقَذَفَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمُ الرُّعْبَ يُخْرِبُونَ بُيُوتَهُم بِأَيْدِيهِمْ وَأَيْدِي الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَاعْتَبِرُوا يَا أُولِي الْأَبْصَارِ

(13:31) But if there were a creature by which the Mountains would move, or by which the Earth would open up, or by which the Dead would speak... But no! (Every) solution jam to Allah! So why despair of those who trusted, (knowing) that if Allah wills, He will guide the entire human race (according to the established strategy)? And those who deny, for what they do, will not cease to receive their apocalyptic (scenarios), or (the scenarios will be) sanctioned near their dwellings, until the promise of Allah is revealed. For Allah does not contradict His Promise!
