سُورَةُ النَّجۡمِ

وَثَمُودَا۟ فَمَآ أَبْقَىٰ

And Thamud - and He did not spare [them] -

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍۢ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ هُمْ أَظْلَمَ وَأَطْغَىٰ

And the people of Noah before. Indeed, it was they who were [even] more unjust and oppressing.

وَٱلْمُؤْتَفِكَةَ أَهْوَىٰ

And the overturned towns He hurled down

فَغَشَّىٰهَا مَا غَشَّىٰ

And covered them by that which He covered.

فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكَ تَتَمَارَىٰ

Then which of the favors of your Lord do you doubt?

هَٰذَا نَذِيرٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلنُّذُرِ ٱلْأُولَىٰٓ

This [Prophet] is a warner like the former warners.

أَزِفَتِ ٱلْءَازِفَةُ

The Approaching Day has approached.

لَيْسَ لَهَا مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ كَاشِفَةٌ

Of it, [from those] besides Allah, there is no remover.

أَفَمِنْ هَٰذَا ٱلْحَدِيثِ تَعْجَبُونَ

Then at this statement do you wonder?

وَتَضْحَكُونَ وَلَا تَبْكُونَ

And you laugh and do not weep
