طٰهٰ — Taha Ayat 129
وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ لَكَانَ لِزَامًا وَّاَجَلٌ مُّسَمًّى ۗ
Wa lau lā kalimatun sabaqat mir rabbika lakāna lizāmaw wa ajalum musammā(n).
"And if not for a word that preceded from your Lord, punishment would have been an obligation [due immediately], and [if not for] a specified term [decreed]."
