الَّذينَ يُفسِدونَ فِي الأَرضِ وَلا يُصلِحونَ

Who cause corruption in the land and do not amend."

قالوا إِنَّما أَنتَ مِنَ المُسَحَّرينَ

They said, "You are only of those affected by magic.

ما أَنتَ إِلّا بَشَرٌ مِثلُنا فَأتِ بِآيَةٍ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصّادِقينَ

You are but a man like ourselves, so bring a sign, if you should be of the truthful."

قالَ هـٰذِهِ ناقَةٌ لَها شِربٌ وَلَكُم شِربُ يَومٍ مَعلومٍ

He said, "This is a she-camel. For her is a [time of] drink, and for you is a [time of] drink, [each] on a known day.

وَلا تَمَسّوها بِسوءٍ فَيَأخُذَكُم عَذابُ يَومٍ عَظيمٍ

And do not touch her with harm, lest you be seized by the punishment of a terrible day."

فَأَخَذَهُمُ العَذابُ ۗ إِنَّ في ذٰلِكَ لَآيَةً ۖ وَما كانَ أَكثَرُهُم مُؤمِنينَ

And the punishment seized them. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ العَزيزُ الرَّحيمُ

And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.

كَذَّبَت قَومُ لوطٍ المُرسَلينَ

The people of Lot denied the messengers

إِذ قالَ لَهُم أَخوهُم لوطٌ أَلا تَتَّقونَ

When their brother Lot said to them, "Will you not fear Allah?

إِنّي لَكُم رَسولٌ أَمينٌ

Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
