The Inevitable Retribution
7:136 Consequently, we avenged their actions, and drowned them in the sea. That is because they rejected our signs, and were totally heedless thereof.
7:137 We let the oppressed people inherit the land, east and west, and we blessed it. The blessed commands of your Lord were thus fulfilled for the Children of Israel, to reward them for their steadfastness, and we annihilated the works of Pharaoh and his people and everything they harvested.
God Compensates the Oppressed
28:5 We willed to compensate those who were oppressed on earth, and to turn them into leaders, and make them the inheritors.
