Al Quran : Because of that evil which they used to do, Allah made it taste extreme of hunger (famine) and fear

Al Quran : Allah puts forward the example of a township  that dwelt secure and and well-content  its provision coming to it in abundance from every place, but it (its people) denied the Favours of Allah (with ungratefulness). So Allah made it taste extreme of hunger (famine) and fear, because of that (evil ) which they (its people) used to do

Surah An Nahl (16),  112
