Transliteration
Sunnata man qad arsalnaa qablakamir Rusulinaa wa laa tajidu lisunnatinaa tahhweelaa
Translation
[That is Our] established way for those We had sent before you of Our messengers; and you will not find in Our way any alteration.
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
The issue of their not remaining after you except for a short while is the constant practice of Allah with respect to the Messengers before you, namely that whenever a Messenger was exiled by his people, Allah sent punishment upon them. And you will not find, O Messenger, any change in my practice, but rather you will find it to be established and constant.
