أَلَم نُهلِكِ الأَوَّلينَ

Did We not destroy the former peoples?

ثُمَّ نُتبِعُهُمُ الآخِرينَ

Then We will follow them with the later ones.

كَذٰلِكَ نَفعَلُ بِالمُجرِمينَ

Thus do We deal with the criminals.

وَيلٌ يَومَئِذٍ لِلمُكَذِّبينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

أَلَم نَخلُقكُم مِن ماءٍ مَهينٍ

Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?

إِلىٰ قَدَرٍ مَعلومٍ

For a known extent.

فَقَدَرنا فَنِعمَ القادِرونَ

And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine.

وَيلٌ يَومَئِذٍ لِلمُكَذِّبينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

أَلَم نَجعَلِ الأَرضَ كِفاتًا

Have We not made the earth a container

أَحياءً وَأَمواتًا

Of the living and the dead?
