Al-Kahf 18:86 حتى اذا بلغ مغرب الشمس وجدها تغرب في عين حمية ووجد عندها قوما قلنا يا ذا القرنين اما ان تعذب واما ان تتخذ فيهم حسنا ٨٦
حَتَّىٰٓ
إِذَا
بَلَغَ
مَغۡرِبَ
ٱلشَّمۡسِ
وَجَدَهَا
تَغۡرُبُ
فِي
عَيۡنٍ
حَمِئَةٖ
وَوَجَدَ
عِندَهَا
قَوۡمٗاۖ
قُلۡنَا
يَٰذَا
ٱلۡقَرۡنَيۡنِ
إِمَّآ
أَن
تُعَذِّبَ
وَإِمَّآ
أَن
تَتَّخِذَ
فِيهِمۡ
حُسۡنٗا
