The word(s) "justified" appears 2 time(s) in 2 verse(s) in Quran in Saheeh International translation.

(1) Do you not see that to Allah prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth and the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the moving creatures and many of the people? But upon many the punishment has been justified. And he whom Allah humiliates - for him there is no bestower of honor. Indeed, Allah does what He wills.

(2) Each of them denied the messengers, so My penalty was justified.
