بَل كَذَّبوا بِالحَقِّ لَمّا جاءَهُم فَهُم في أَمرٍ مَريجٍ

They’ve denied the truth when it came to them; thus, they are in a state of confusion.

أَفَلَم يَنظُروا إِلَى السَّماءِ فَوقَهُم كَيفَ بَنَيناها وَزَيَّنّاها وَما لَها مِن فُروجٍ

Didn’t they observe the sky above them—how We constructed it, decorated it, and it has no cracks?

وَالأَرضَ مَدَدناها وَأَلقَينا فيها رَواسِيَ وَأَنبَتنا فيها مِن كُلِّ زَوجٍ بَهيجٍ

And the Earth—we expanded it, and placed upon it firm mountains, and made everything on it grow in a balanced way.

تَبصِرَةً وَذِكرىٰ لِكُلِّ عَبدٍ مُنيبٍ

Insight and a reminder for every devoted servant.

وَنَزَّلنا مِنَ السَّماءِ ماءً مُبارَكًا فَأَنبَتنا بِهِ جَنّاتٍ وَحَبَّ الحَصيدِ

And We send down from the sky blessed water, with which We produce gardens and grains of harvest.

رِزقًا لِلعِبادِ ۖ وَأَحيَينا بِهِ بَلدَةً مَيتًا ۚ كَذٰلِكَ الخُروجُ

This sustenance is for humankind. And with it, We revive barren land. Similarly, will be the resurrection.

كَذَّبَت قَبلَهُم قَومُ نوحٍ وَأَصحابُ الرَّسِّ وَثَمودُ

Before them, the people of Noah, the residents of Ar-Rass, and Thamud denied the truth.

وَعادٌ وَفِرعَونُ وَإِخوانُ لوطٍ

So did Aad, Pharaoh, and the brethren of Lot.

وَأَصحابُ الأَيكَةِ وَقَومُ تُبَّعٍ ۚ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعيدِ

The inhabitants of the Forest and the people of Tubba also rejected the messengers. So My promise was justified.

أَفَعَيينا بِالخَلقِ الأَوَّلِ ۚ بَل هُم في لَبسٍ مِن خَلقٍ جَديدٍ

Were We exhausted by the first creation? Yet they are in confusion about a new creation.
