كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ

The people of Thamûd rejected the messengers


إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ صَٰلِحٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ

when their brother Ṣâliḥ said to them, “Will you not fear ˹Allah˺?


إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ

I am truly a trustworthy messenger to you.


فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ

So fear Allah, and obey me.


وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

I do not ask you for any reward for this ˹message˺. My reward is only from the Lord of all worlds.


أَتُتۡرَكُونَ فِي مَا هَٰهُنَآ ءَامِنِينَ

Do you think you will be ˹forever˺ left secure in what you have here:


فِي جَنَّـٰتٖ وَعُيُونٖ

amid gardens and springs,


وَزُرُوعٖ وَنَخۡلٖ طَلۡعُهَا هَضِيمٞ

and ˹various˺ crops, and palm trees ˹loaded˺ with tender fruit;


وَتَنۡحِتُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡجِبَالِ بُيُوتٗا فَٰرِهِينَ

to carve homes in the mountains with great skill?
