قَالُوْا یٰلُوْطُ اِنَّا رُسُلُ رَبِّكَ لَنْ یَّصِلُوْۤا اِلَیْكَ فَاَسْرِ بِاَهْلِكَ بِقِطْعٍ مِّنَ الَّیْلِ وَ لَا یَلْتَفِتْ مِنْكُمْ اَحَدٌ اِلَّا امْرَاَتَكَ ؕ اِنَّهٗ مُصِیْبُهَا مَاۤ اَصَابَهُمْ ؕ اِنَّ مَوْعِدَهُمُ الصُّبْحُ ؕ اَلَیْسَ الصُّبْحُ بِقَرِیْبٍ۝۸۱

(The angels) said: "O Lot, we have verily been sent by your Lord. They will never be able to harm you. So, leave late at night with your family, and none of you should turn back to look; but your wife will suffer (the fate) they are going to suffer. Their hour of doom is in the morning: Is not the morning nigh?"

فَلَمَّا جَآءَ اَمْرُنَا جَعَلْنَا عَالِیَهَا سَافِلَهَا وَ اَمْطَرْنَا عَلَیْهَا حِجَارَةً مِّنْ سِجِّیْلٍ ۙ۬ مَّنْضُوْدٍۙ۝۸۲

So when the decreed moment arrived, We turned the habitations upside down, and rained upon them stones of hardened lava in quick succession,

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ ؕ وَ مَا هِیَ مِنَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ بِبَعِیْدٍ۠۝۸۳

Impressed with (the signs) of your Lord. And such (punishment) is not far for the (other) transgressers.

وَ اِلٰی مَدْیَنَ اَخَاهُمْ شُعَیْبًا ؕ قَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللّٰهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِّنْ اِلٰهٍ غَیْرُهٗ ؕ وَ لَا تَنْقُصُوا الْمِكْیَالَ وَ الْمِیْزَانَ اِنِّیْۤ اَرٰىكُمْ بِخَیْرٍ وَّ اِنِّیْۤ اَخَافُ عَلَیْكُمْ عَذَابَ یَوْمٍ مُّحِیْطٍ۝۸۴

We sent to Midian their brother Shu´aib. He said: "O my people, worship God; you have no other god but He. So do not give in short measure nor underweigh. I see you are prosperous, but I fear the doom of an overwhelming Day for you.

وَ یٰقَوْمِ اَوْفُوا الْمِكْیَالَ وَ الْمِیْزَانَ بِالْقِسْطِ وَ لَا تَبْخَسُوا النَّاسَ اَشْیَآءَهُمْ وَ لَا تَعْثَوْا فِی الْاَرْضِ مُفْسِدِیْنَ۝۸۵

So, O my people, weigh and measure with justness, and do not withhold things due to men, and do not spread corruption in the land, despoiling it.

بَقِیَّتُ اللّٰهِ خَیْرٌ لَّكُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُّؤْمِنِیْنَ ۚ۬ وَ مَاۤ اَنَا عَلَیْكُمْ بِحَفِیْظٍ۝۸۶

That which is left to you by God is better, if you are true believers; yet I am not a warden over you."

قَالُوْا یٰشُعَیْبُ اَصَلٰوتُكَ تَاْمُرُكَ اَنْ نَّتْرُكَ مَا یَعْبُدُ اٰبَآؤُنَاۤ اَوْ اَنْ نَّفْعَلَ فِیْۤ اَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشٰٓؤُا ؕ اِنَّكَ لَاَنْتَ الْحَلِیْمُ الرَّشِیْدُ۝۸۷

They said: "O Shu´aib, does your piety teach that we should abandon what our fathers worshipped, or desist from doing what we like with our goods? How gracious a man of discernment you are indeed!"

قَالَ یٰقَوْمِ اَرَءَیْتُمْ اِنْ كُنْتُ عَلٰی بَیِّنَةٍ مِّنْ رَّبِّیْ وَ رَزَقَنِیْ مِنْهُ رِزْقًا حَسَنًا ؕ وَ مَاۤ اُرِیْدُ اَنْ اُخَالِفَكُمْ اِلٰی مَاۤ اَنْهٰىكُمْ عَنْهُ ؕ اِنْ اُرِیْدُ اِلَّا الْاِصْلَاحَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ ؕ وَ مَا تَوْفِیْقِیْۤ اِلَّا بِاللّٰهِ ؕ عَلَیْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ اِلَیْهِ اُنِیْبُ۝۸۸

He said: "O my people, think. I have a clear sign from my Lord, who has also given me a goodly provision, and I do not wish for myself what I forbid you: I only wish to reform you as best I can. My success is from God alone. In Him I have placed my trust, and to Him I turn.

وَ یٰقَوْمِ لَا یَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شِقَاقِیْۤ اَنْ یُّصِیْبَكُمْ مِّثْلُ مَاۤ اَصَابَ قَوْمَ نُوْحٍ اَوْ قَوْمَ هُوْدٍ اَوْ قَوْمَ صٰلِحٍ ؕ وَ مَا قَوْمُ لُوْطٍ مِّنْكُمْ بِبَعِیْدٍ۝۸۹

"O my people (I fear) lest your opposition to me should bring you the like of what befell the people of Noah or Hud or Saleh; and the people of Lot are not distant from you.

وَ اسْتَغْفِرُوْا رَبَّكُمْ ثُمَّ تُوْبُوْۤا اِلَیْهِ ؕ اِنَّ رَبِّیْ رَحِیْمٌ وَّدُوْدٌ۝۹۰

"Beg your Lord to forgive you, and turn to Him. Indeed my Lord is compassionate and loving."
