             this does not suggest that they lived under difficult, primitive conditions and did not live civilized, humane

             lives. No matter how wealthy, comfortable and advanced their civilizations might have been, those who have
             denied God and persisted in their denial, who failed to live by proper moral values and brought about corrup-
             tion on Earth, have always ended up disappointed. In addition, many of them have perhaps enjoyed more ad-
             vanced technologies than those of present-day societies. This is also revealed in the Qur'an:

                 Haven't they traveled in the Earth and seen the final fate of those before them? They had greater strength than
                 them and cultivated the land and inhabited it in far greater numbers than they do. Their messengers also came
                 to them with the clear signs. God would never have wronged them; but they wronged themselves. (Surat ar-
                 Rum: 9)
