قال لا ياتيكما طعام ترزقانه الا نباتكما بتاويله قبل ان ياتيكما ذلكما مما علمني ربي اني تركت ملة قوم لا يؤمنون بالله وهم بالاخرة هم كافرون

He said: "Before any food Comes (in due course) To feed either of you, I will surely reveal To you the truth And meaning of this Ere it befall you That is part of the (Duty) Which my Lord hath taught me. I have (I assure you) Abandoned the ways Of a people that believe not In God and that (even) Deny the Hereafter.
