وَلَئِنۡ أَطَعۡتُم بَشَرٗا مِّثۡلَكُمۡ إِنَّكُمۡ إِذٗا لَّخَٰسِرُونَ
and you will really be losers if you obey a mortal like yourselves.
أَيَعِدُكُمۡ أَنَّكُمۡ إِذَا مِتُّمۡ وَكُنتُمۡ تُرَابٗا وَعِظَٰمًا أَنَّكُم مُّخۡرَجُونَ
How can he promise you that after you die and become dust and bones you will be brought out alive?
۞هَيۡهَاتَ هَيۡهَاتَ لِمَا تُوعَدُونَ
What you are promised is very farfetched.
إِنۡ هِيَ إِلَّا حَيَاتُنَا ٱلدُّنۡيَا نَمُوتُ وَنَحۡيَا وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمَبۡعُوثِينَ
There is only the life of this world: we die, we live, but we will never be resurrected.
إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ ٱفۡتَرَىٰ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ كَذِبٗا وَمَا نَحۡنُ لَهُۥ بِمُؤۡمِنِينَ
He is just a man making lies up about God. We will never believe in him.’
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱنصُرۡنِي بِمَا كَذَّبُونِ
The prophet said, ‘My Lord, help me! They call me a liar,’
قَالَ عَمَّا قَلِيلٖ لَّيُصۡبِحُنَّ نَٰدِمِينَ
and so God said, ‘Soon they will be filled with regret.’
فَأَخَذَتۡهُمُ ٱلصَّيۡحَةُ بِٱلۡحَقِّ فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمۡ غُثَآءٗۚ فَبُعۡدٗا لِّلۡقَوۡمِ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ
The blast justly struck them and We swept them away like scum. Away with the evildoers!
