Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The Destruction or Torment of all Disbelieving Towns before the Hour beginsHere Allah tells us that He has decreed and it is written in Al-Lawh Al-Mahfuz (The Preserved Tablet) which is with Him, that there is no town that He will not destroy by wiping out all its people or by punishing them,عَذَاباً شَدِيداً(with a severe torment.) either by killing them or sending calamities upon them as He wills.
