Reflections on Surah Al-Ahqaf Ayah 12

46:12
ومن قبله كتاب موسى اماما ورحمة وهاذا كتاب مصدق لسانا عربيا لينذر الذين ظلموا وبشرى للمحسنين ١٢
وَمِن قَبْلِهِۦ كِتَـٰبُ مُوسَىٰٓ إِمَامًۭا وَرَحْمَةًۭ ۚ وَهَـٰذَا كِتَـٰبٌۭ مُّصَدِّقٌۭ لِّسَانًا عَرَبِيًّۭا لِّيُنذِرَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ وَبُشْرَىٰ لِلْمُحْسِنِينَ ١٢
وَمِنﳁ
قَبۡلِهِۦﳂ
كِتَٰبُﳃ
مُوسَىٰٓﳄ
إِمَامٗاﳅ
وَرَحۡمَةٗۚﳆﳇ
وَهَٰذَاﳈ
كِتَٰبٞﳉ
مُّصَدِّقٞﳊ
لِّسَانًاﳋ
عَرَبِيّٗاﳌ
لِّيُنذِرَﳍ
ٱلَّذِينَﳎ
ظَلَمُواْﳏ
وَبُشۡرَىٰﳐ
لِلۡمُحۡسِنِينَﳑ

And before this ˹Quran˺ the Book of Moses was ˹revealed as˺ a guide and mercy. And this Book is a confirmation, in the Arabic tongue, to warn those who do wrong, and as good news to those who do good.
