quran:50:36 –

And how many a generation before them did We destroy who were greater than them in ˹striking˺ power and had explored throughout the lands. Is there any place of escape?  

And how many a generation We destroyed before them, that is, before the disbelievers of Quraysh We destroyed many generations of disbelievers, who were mightier than these in prowess, and ˹who˺ then searched throughout the land ˹wondering˺: is there any escape?, for them and others from death, but they found none.
القرآن:٥٠:٣٦ –

وَكَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا قَبْلَهُمْ مِنْ قَرْنٍ هُمْ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُمْ بَطْشًا فَنَقَّبُوا فِي الْبِلَادِ هَلْ مِنْ مَحِيصٍ  

{وكم أهلكنا قبلهم من قرن} أي أهلكنا قبل كفار قريش قرونا كثيرة من الكفار {هم أشد منهم بطشا} قوة {فنقبوا} فتشوا {في البلاد هل من محيص} لهم أو لغيرهم من الموت فلم يجدوا.
