Read Surah Ash-Shuara

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

اِنَّ فِیْ ذٰلِكَ لَاٰیَةً ؕ وَ مَا كَانَ اَكْثَرُهُمْ مُّؤْمِنِیْنَ۝۱۲۱

Verily there is a sign in this, yet many of them do not believe.

وَ اِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الرَّحِیْمُ۠۝۱۲۲

But surely your Lord is mighty and merciful.

كَذَّبَتْ عَادُ ِ۟الْمُرْسَلِیْنَۚۖ۝۱۲۳

The people of ´Ad accused the messengers of lies.

اِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ اَخُوْهُمْ هُوْدٌ اَلَا تَتَّقُوْنَۚ۝۱۲۴

When their brother Hud said to them: "Will you not take heed?

فَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اَطِیْعُوْنِۚ۝۱۶۳

So fear God and listen to me.

اَتَبْنُوْنَ بِكُلِّ رِیْعٍ اٰیَةً تَعْبَثُوْنَ۝۱۲۸

You construct monuments on every hill in vain,

وَ تَتَّخِذُوْنَ مَصَانِعَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَخْلُدُوْنَۚ۝۱۲۹

Erect palaces (thinking) that you will live for ever,

وَ اِذَا بَطَشْتُمْ بَطَشْتُمْ جَبَّارِیْنَۚ۝۱۳۰

And whenever you apply force become tyrannical.

فَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَ اَطِیْعُوْنِۚ۝۱۳۱

So be fearful of God and follow me.

وَ اتَّقُوا الَّذِیْۤ اَمَدَّكُمْ بِمَا تَعْلَمُوْنَۚ۝۱۳۲

Fear Him who has bestowed on you what you know,
