وجاءه قومه يهرعون اليه ومن قبل كانوا يعملون السيئات قال يا قوم هؤلاء بناتي هن اطهر لكم فاتقوا الله ولا تخزون في ضيفي اليس منكم رجل رشيد

And his people came Rushing towards him, And they had been long In the habit of practising Abominations. He said: "O my people! Here are My daughters: they are purer For you (if ye marry)! Now fear God, and cover me not With shame about my guests! Is there not among you A single right-minded man?"
