وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ مُهْلِكَ الْقُرَى حَتَّى يَبْعَثَ فِي أُمِّهَاAnd never will your Lord destroy the towns until He sends to their mother town i.e., Makkah --رَسُولاً يَتْلُو عَلَيْهِمْ ايَاتِنَاa Messenger reciting to them Our Ayat.This indicates that the Unlettered Prophet, Muhammad was sent from the Mother of Cities as a Messenger to all cities and towns, Arab and non-Arab alike.This is like the Ayat:لِّتُنذِرَ أُمَّ الْقُرَى وَمَنْ حَوْلَهَاso that you may warn the Mother of Towns and all those around it. (6:92)قُلْ يَأَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكُمْ جَمِيعًاSay:"O mankind! Verily, I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allah." (7:158)لااٌّنذِرَكُمْ بِهِ وَمَن بَلَغَThat I may therewith warn you and whomsoever it may reach. (6:19)وَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِهِ مِنَ الاٌّحْزَابِ فَالنَّارُ مَوْعِدُهُbut those of the sects that reject it, the Fire will be their promised meeting place. (11:17)وَإِن مِّن قَرْيَةٍ إِلاَّ نَحْنُ مُهْلِكُوهَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَـمَةِ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُوهَا عَذَابًا شَدِيدًاAnd there is not a town but We shall destroy it before the Day of Resurrection, or punish it with a severe torment. (17:58) Allah tells us that He will destroy every town before the Day of Resurrection, as He says:وَمَا كُنَّا مُعَذِّبِينَ حَتَّى نَبْعَثَ رَسُولاًAnd We never punish until We have sent a Messenger. (17:15)Allah has sent the Unlettered Prophet to all the towns (all of mankind), because he has been sent to the Mother of Cities, their source to which they all return.It was recorded in the Two Sahihs that the Prophet said:بُعِثْتُ إِلَى الاَْحْمَرِ وَالاَْسْوَدI have been sent to the red and the black.Prophethood ended with him, and there is no Prophet or Messenger to come after him, but his way will remain as long as night and day remain, until the Day of Resurrection.Allah also tells that:وَمَا كُنَّا مُهْلِكِي الْقُرَى إِلاَّ وَأَهْلُهَا ظَالِمُونَAnd never would We destroy the towns unless the people thereof are wrongdoers
