Transliteration:( Summa nutbi'uhumul aakhireen )
"So We shall cause the later [15] ones to follow them."
Context: Referring to the previous verse (16), Allah mentions that just as He destroyed earlier generations for their disbelief, the later generations who reject the truth will face the same fate in the Hereafter.
Key Point: The punishment of the disbelievers is consistent across time. Those who deny the message will be treated like those before them, as Allah's justice applies equally to all.
