Tafheem ul Quran
Surah 16 An-Nahl, Ayat 112-112
وَضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا قَرۡيَةً كَانَتۡ اٰمِنَةً مُّطۡمَـئِنَّةً يَّاۡتِيۡهَا رِزۡقُهَا رَغَدًا مِّنۡ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ فَكَفَرَتۡ بِاَنۡعُمِ اللّٰهِ فَاَذَاقَهَا اللّٰهُ لِبَاسَ الۡجُـوۡعِ وَالۡخَـوۡفِ بِمَا كَانُوۡا يَصۡنَعُوۡنَ
﴿16:112﴾
(16:112) Allah sets forth the parable of (the people of) a town who were
secure and content and whose sustenance came in abundance from every quarter.
But then the people of the town showed ingratitude towards Allah for His bounties,
so Allah afflicted them with hunger and fear in punishment for their evil deeds.
