أَفَأَمِنَ أَهْلُ الْقُرَى أَن يَأْتِيَهُمْ بَأْسُنَا بَيَاتاً وَهُمْ نَآئِمُونَ
[7:97]
What! do the people of the towns then feel secure from Our punishment coming to them by night while they sleep?
Did the people of the towns feel secure against the coming of Our wrath by night while they were asleep?
Are the people of the townships then secure from the coming of Our wrath upon them as a night-raid while they sleep?
