Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
And to many a township did I give respite although they were oppressors; then I seized them; and towards Me is the return.

And to how many populations did I give respite, which were given to wrong-doing? in the end I punished them. To me is the destination (of all).

And how many a township did I suffer long though it was sinful! Then I grasped it. Unto Me is the return.
