فَانتَقَمنا مِنهُم وَإِنَّهُما لَبِإِمامٍ مُبينٍ

So, We exacted retribution from them. Both were visible from the main road.

وَلَقَد كَذَّبَ أَصحابُ الحِجرِ المُرسَلينَ

Similarly, the inhabitants of the Rocky Tract rejected the messengers.

وَآتَيناهُم آياتِنا فَكانوا عَنها مُعرِضينَ

We presented them with Our signs, but they turned away from them.

وَكانوا يَنحِتونَ مِنَ الجِبالِ بُيوتًا آمِنينَ

They used to carve secure homes into the mountains.

فَأَخَذَتهُمُ الصَّيحَةُ مُصبِحينَ

Yet, the sudden blast seized them at dawn.

وَما خَلَقنَا السَّماواتِ وَالأَرضَ وَما بَينَهُما إِلّا بِالحَقِّ ۗ وَإِنَّ السّاعَةَ لَآتِيَةٌ ۖ فَاصفَحِ الصَّفحَ الجَميلَ

We created the heavens and the earth, and what lies between them, with truth. The Hour is certainly coming, so overlook with beautiful forgiveness.

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ الخَلّاقُ العَليمُ

Surely your Lord, He is the Creator, the All-Knowing.

وَلَقَد آتَيناكَ سَبعًا مِنَ المَثاني وَالقُرآنَ العَظيمَ

We’ve given you seven pairs, and the Grand Quran.

لا تَمُدَّنَّ عَينَيكَ إِلىٰ ما مَتَّعنا بِهِ أَزواجًا مِنهُم وَلا تَحزَن عَلَيهِم وَاخفِض جَناحَكَ لِلمُؤمِنينَ

Don’t extend your eyes towards what We gave certain classes of them to enjoy, and don’t grieve over them. Instead, show kindness to the believers.

وَقُل إِنّي أَنَا النَّذيرُ المُبينُ

Say, “I am the clear warner.”
