فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَقِيمٞ

then said, “I am really sick.”


فَتَوَلَّوۡاْ عَنۡهُ مُدۡبِرِينَ

So they turned their backs on him and went away.


فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ ءَالِهَتِهِمۡ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَأۡكُلُونَ

Then he ˹stealthily˺ advanced towards their gods, and said ˹mockingly˺, “Will you not eat ˹your offerings˺?


مَا لَكُمۡ لَا تَنطِقُونَ

What is wrong with you that you cannot speak?”


فَرَاغَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ ضَرۡبَۢا بِٱلۡيَمِينِ

Then he swiftly turned on them, striking ˹them˺ with his right hand.


فَأَقۡبَلُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهِ يَزِفُّونَ

Later, his people came rushing towards him ˹furiously˺.


قَالَ أَتَعۡبُدُونَ مَا تَنۡحِتُونَ

He argued, “How can you worship what you carve ˹with your own hands˺,


وَٱللَّهُ خَلَقَكُمۡ وَمَا تَعۡمَلُونَ

when it is Allah Who created you and whatever you do?”


قَالُواْ ٱبۡنُواْ لَهُۥ بُنۡيَٰنٗا فَأَلۡقُوهُ فِي ٱلۡجَحِيمِ

They said ˹to one another˺, “Build him a furnace and cast him into the blazing fire.”
