عُتُلٍّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ زَنِيمٍ
﴿۱۳﴾
Greedy therewithal, intrusive. (13)
أَنْ كَانَ ذَا مَالٍ وَبَنِينَ
﴿۱۴﴾
It is because he is possessed of wealth and children (14)
إِذَا تُتْلَى عَلَيْهِ آيَاتُنَا قَالَ أَسَاطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ
﴿۱۵﴾
That, when Our revelations are recited unto him, he saith: Mere fables of the men of old. (15)
سَنَسِمُهُ عَلَى الْخُرْطُومِ
﴿۱۶﴾
We shall brand him on the nose. (16)
إِنَّا بَلَوْنَاهُمْ كَمَا بَلَوْنَا أَصْحَابَ الْجَنَّةِ إِذْ أَقْسَمُوا لَيَصْرِمُنَّهَا مُصْبِحِينَ
﴿۱۷﴾
Lo! We have tried them as We tried the owners of the garden when they vowed that they would pluck its fruit next morning, (17)
وَلَا يَسْتَثْنُونَ
﴿۱۸﴾
And made no exception (for the Will of Allah); (18)
فَطَافَ عَلَيْهَا طَائِفٌ مِنْ رَبِّكَ وَهُمْ نَائِمُونَ
﴿۱۹﴾
Then a visitation from thy Lord came upon it while they slept (19)
فَأَصْبَحَتْ كَالصَّرِيمِ
﴿۲۰﴾
And in the morning it was as if plucked. (20)
فَتَنَادَوْا مُصْبِحِينَ
﴿۲۱﴾
And they cried out one unto another in the morning, (21)
أَنِ اغْدُوا عَلَى حَرْثِكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صَارِمِينَ
﴿۲۲﴾
Saying: Run unto your field if ye would pluck (the fruit). (22)
