Read Surah Az-Zukhruf

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

حٰمٓۚۛ۝۱

HA MIM.

وَ الْكِتٰبِ الْمُبِیْنِۙۛ۝۲

I call to witness the lucent Book,

اِنَّا جَعَلْنٰهُ قُرْءٰنًا عَرَبِیًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُوْنَۚ۝۳

That We made it a distinctly lucid Qur´an that you may understand.

وَ اِنَّهٗ فِیْۤ اُمِّ الْكِتٰبِ لَدَیْنَا لَعَلِیٌّ حَكِیْمٌؕ۝۴

It is inscribed in the original Book (of Books) with Us, sublime, dispenser of (all) laws.

اَفَنَضْرِبُ عَنْكُمُ الذِّكْرَ صَفْحًا اَنْ كُنْتُمْ قَوْمًا مُّسْرِفِیْنَ۝۵

Should We have withdrawn the Reminder from you as you are a people who exceed the bounds?

وَ كَمْ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ نَّبِیٍّ فِی الْاَوَّلِیْنَ۝۶

Many a prophet had We sent to the earlier communities,

وَ مَا یَاْتِیْهِمْ مِّنْ نَّبِیٍّ اِلَّا كَانُوْا بِهٖ یَسْتَهْزِءُوْنَ۝۷

But never did a prophet come at whom they did not scoff.

فَاَهْلَكْنَاۤ اَشَدَّ مِنْهُمْ بَطْشًا وَّ مَضٰی مَثَلُ الْاَوَّلِیْنَ۝۸

So We destroyed far more powerful (nations) than they. The example of earlier people is there.

وَ لَىِٕنْ سَاَلْتَهُمْ مَّنْ خَلَقَ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضَ لَیَقُوْلُنَّ خَلَقَهُنَّ الْعَزِیْزُ الْعَلِیْمُۙ۝۹

If you ask them: "Who created the heavens and the earth?" they will answer: "The Mighty and All-knowing created them,"

الَّذِیْ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْاَرْضَ مَهْدًا وَّ جَعَلَ لَكُمْ فِیْهَا سُبُلًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُوْنَۚ۝۱۰

He who made the earth a bed for you, and laid out tracks upon it so that you may find the way;
