Did you not see how your Lord dealt with ’Ȃd—

˹the people˺ of Iram—with ˹their˺ great stature,

unmatched in any other land;

and Thamûd who carved ˹their homes into˺ the rocks in the ˹Stone˺ Valley;

and the Pharaoh of mighty structures?¹

They all transgressed throughout the land,

spreading much corruption there.

So your Lord unleashed on them a scourge of punishment.¹

˹For˺ your Lord is truly vigilant.
