Why were there not, out of the generations that passed away before you, righteous men who would forbid others from causing corruption on the earth?

(It also happened with the earlier Messengers that for long they preached and people paid no heed) until the Messengers despaired of their people, and the people also fancied that they had been told lies (by the Messengers), then suddenly Our help came to the Messengers.
