Awa lam yaseeroo fee al-ardi fayanthuroo kayfa kana AAaqibatu allatheena kanoo min qablihim kanoo hum ashadda minhum quwwatan waatharan fee al-ardi faakhathahumu Allahu bithunoobihim wama kana lahum mina Allahi min waqin\n21. Do they not travel\n Through the earth and see\n What was the End\n Of those before them\n They were even superior\n To them in strength,\n And in the traces (they\n Have left) in the land:\n But God did call them\n To account for their sins,\n And none had they\n To defend them against God.\n22. Thalika bi-annahum kanat ta/teehim rusuluhum bialbayyinati fakafaroo faakhathahumu Allahu innahu qawiyyun shadeedu alAAiqabi\n22. That was because there came\n To them their apostles\n With Clear (Signs),\n But they rejected them:\n So God called them\n To account: for He is\n Full of Strength,\n Strict in Punishment.\n23. Walaqad arsalna moosa bi-ayatina wasultanin mubeenin\n23. Of old We sent Moses,\n With Our Signs\n And an Authority manifest,\n24. Ila firAAawna wahamana waqaroona faqaloo sahirun kaththabun\n24.

Now, when he came to them\n In Truth, from Us,\n They said, \"Slay the sons\n Of those who believe a\n With him, and keep alive\n Their females,\" but the plots\n Of Unbelievers (end) in nothing\n But errors (and delusions)!\u2026\n26. Waqala firAAawnu tharoonee aqtul moosa walyadAAu rabbahu innee akhafu an yubaddila deenakum aw an yuthhira fee al-ardi alfasada\n26. Said Pharaoh: \"Leave me\n To slay Moses; and let him\n Call on his Lord!\n What I fear is lest\n He should change your religion,\n Or lest he should cause\n Mischief to appear\n In the land!\"\n27. Waqala moosa innee AAuthtu birabbee warabbikum min kulli mutakabbirin la yu/minu biyawmi alhisabi\n27. Moses said: \"I have indeed\n Called upon my Lord\n And your Lord\n (For protection) from every\n Arrogant one who believes not\n In the Day of Account!\"","title":"The Quran: S\u016bra XL.: M\u016b-min, or The Believer.: Section 3 (21-27)","type":"page"}
