وَآتَيْنَاهُمْ آيَاتِنَا فَكَانُوا عَنْهَا مُعْرِضِينَ ٨١
We sent them Our Signs, but they persisted in turning away from them.
15:82
وَكَانُوا يَنْحِتُونَ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ بُيُوتًا آمِنِينَ ٨٢
Out of the mountains did they hew (their) edifices, (feeling themselves) secure.
15:83
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ مُصْبِحِينَ ٨٣
But the (mighty) Blast seized them of a morning,
15:84
فَمَا أَغْنَىٰ عَنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ ٨٤
And of no avail to them was all that they did (with such art and care)!
15:85
وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ۗ وَإِنَّ السَّاعَةَ لَآتِيَةٌ ۖ فَاصْفَحِ الصَّفْحَ الْجَمِيلَ ٨٥
We created not the heavens, the earth, and all between them, but for just ends. And the Hour is surely coming (when this will be manifest). So overlook (any human faults) with gracious forgiveness.
