51. Dharijat · verses 32–40

قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّآ أُرۡسِلۡنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوۡمٖ مُّجۡرِمِينَ

Qaloo inna orsilna ila qawmin mujrimeena

They said, "We have been sent to a people (deep) in sin;-

لِنُرۡسِلَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حِجَارَةٗ مِّن طِينٖ

Linursila AAalayhim hijaratan min teenin

"To bring on, on them, (a shower of) stones of clay (brimstone),

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلۡمُسۡرِفِينَ

Musawwamatan AAinda rabbika lilmusrifeena

"Marked as from thy Lord for those who trespass beyond bounds."

فَأَخۡرَجۡنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ

Faakhrajna man kana feeha mina almumineena

Then We evacuated those of the Believers who were there,

فَمَا وَجَدۡنَا فِيهَا غَيۡرَ بَيۡتٖ مِّنَ ٱلۡمُسۡلِمِينَ

Fama wajadna feeha ghayra baytin mina almuslimeena

But We found not there any just (Muslim) persons except in one house:

وَتَرَكۡنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةٗ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَلِيمَ

Watarakna feeha ayatan lillatheena yakhafoona alAAathaba alaleema

And We left there a Sign for such as fear the Grievous Penalty.

وَفِي مُوسَىٰٓ إِذۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرۡعَوۡنَ بِسُلۡطَٰنٖ مُّبِينٖ

Wafee moosa ith arsalnahu ila firAAawna bisultanin mubeenin

And in Moses (was another Sign): Behold, We sent him to Pharaoh, with authority manifest.

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكۡنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوۡ مَجۡنُونٞ

Fatawalla biruknihi waqala sahirun aw majnoonun

But (Pharaoh) turned back with his Chiefs, and said, "A sorcerer, or one possessed!"

فَأَخَذۡنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذۡنَٰهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٞ

Faakhathnahu wajunoodahu fanabathnahum fee alyammi wahuwa muleemun

So We took him and his forces, and threw them into the sea; and his was the blame.
