ايود احدكم ان تكون له جنة من نخيل واعناب تجري من تحتها الانهار له فيها من كل الثمرات واصابه الكبر وله ذرية ضعفاء فاصابها اعصار فيه نار فاحترقت كذلك يبين الله لكم الايات لعلكم تتفكرون

Does any of you wish That he should have a garden With date-palms and vines And streams flowing Underneath, and all kinds Of fruit, while he is stricken With old age, and his children Are not strong (enough To look after themselves)— That it should be caught In a whirlwind, With fire therein, And be burnt up? Thus doth God make clear To you (His) Signs; That ye may consider.
