| not for you from a God beside Him | مَا لَكُمْ مِنْ إِلَاهٍ غَيْرُهُ | |
| came to you a clear proof from your Lord | قَدْ جَآءَتْكُمْ بَيِّنَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ | |
| this she camel of Allah (SWT) is a sign for you | هَذِهِ نَاقَةُ اللهِ لَكُمْ ءَايَةً | |
| so leave her to eat on the earth of Allah (SWT) | فَذَرُوْهَا تَأْكُلْ فِي أَرْضِ اللهِ | |
| 7-73 | and let not any harm touch her lest a painful punishment seizes you | وَلَا تَمَسُّوْهَا بِسُوءٍ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيْمٌ |
| Did not come to them the news of those from before them | أَلَمْ يَأْتِهِمْ نَبَأُ الَّذِيْنَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ | |
| the people of Nuh (AS) and Aad and Thamud and the people of Ebrahim (AS) | قَوْمِ نُوْحٍ وَعَادٍ وَثَمُوْدَ وَقَوْمِ إِبْرَاهِيْمَ | |

| their messengers came to them with the clear signs | أَتَتْهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ بِالبَيِّنَاتِ | |
| 9-70 | so, not was Allah (SWT) to wrong them but they used to wrong themselves | فَمَا كَانَ اللهُ لِيَظْلِمَهُمْ وَلَاكِنْ كَانُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُوْنَ |

| there is not for you a God other than He | مَا لَكُم مِّن إِلَاهٍ غَيْرُهُ | |
| He brought you forth from the earth and He settled you therein | هُوَ أَنْشَأَكُم مِّنَ الأَرْضِ وَاسْتَعْمَرَكُم فِيهَا | |
| so, seek His forgiveness then turn in repentance to Him | فَاسْتَغْفِرُوهُ ثُمَّ تُوبُوا إِلَيهِ | |
| 11-61 | truly my Lord is Near, Responsive | إِنَّ رَبِّى قَرِيْبٌ مُّجِيْبٌ |
