Surah al-Anbiya' (The Prophets ) 21 : 6
مَآ ءَامَنَتْ قَبْلَهُم مِّن قَرْيَةٍ أَهْلَكْنَٰهَآ ۖ أَفَهُمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ

Not a [single] city which We destroyed believed before them, so will they believe?
Explanatory Note
Miraculous signs and events were given in the past, but the communities to which they were shown did not believe as a result. Hence they were destroyed in accordance with God’s law which seals the fate of any community which continues to reject the truth after having been given a miraculous sign of it. When stubborn rejection of the truth reaches a point that it continues even after a tangible, physical, miraculous sign is given, then all excuses are invalid. People who continue with such rejection seal their own fate and they are destroyed as a result.
