"Do they not travel through the earth and see what was the End of those before them? They were even superior to them in strength, and in the traces (they have left) in the land: but Allah did call them to account for their sins, and none had they to defend them against Allah" [TM Qur'an 40:21]

The History of al-Tabari 

Tarikh al-Rusul wa'l muluk by Abu Ja'far Muhammad b Jarir al-Tabri (839-923), is by common consent the most important universal history produced in the world of Islam.

This  monumental work explores the history of the ancient nations, the prophets, the rise of Islam and the history of the Islamic World down to the year 915.
It is divided  here in 39 Volumes, each of which covers about two hundred pages of the original Arabic text.

His History

"We did aforetime send Messengers before thee: of them there are some whose story we have related to thee, and some whose story we have not related to thee. It was not (possible) for any messenger to bring a Sign except by the leave of Allah: but when the Command of Allah issued, the matter was decided in truth and justice, and there perished, there and then, those who stood on Falsehoods." [TM Qur'an 40:78]
