Wa laa tutee'ooo amral musrifeen
And do not obey the order of the transgressors,
Allazeena yufsidoona fil ardi wa laa yuslihoon
Who cause corruption in the land and do not amend."
Qaalooo innamaa anta minal musahhareen
They said, "You are only of those affected by magic.
Maaa anta illaa basharum mislunaa faati bi Aayatin in kunta minas saadiqeen
You are but a man like ourselves, so bring a sign, if you should be of the truthful."
Qaala haazihee naaqatul lahaa shirbunw w alakum shirbu yawmim ma'loom
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.
Wa laa tamassoohaa bisooo'in fa yaakhuzakum 'azaabu Yawmin 'Azeem
And do not touch her with harm, lest you be seized by the punishment of a terrible day."
Fa'aqaroohaa fa asbahoo naadimeen
But they hamstrung her and so became regretful.
Fa akhazahumul 'azaab; inna fee zaalika la Aayah; wa maa kaana aksaruhum m'mineen
And the punishment seized them. Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
Wa inna Rabbaka la Huwal 'Azeezur Raheem
And indeed, your Lord – He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
