Surah Al-A'raf, verse 39

Each word opens its meaning.

﴿٣٩﴾

Tap a word for its meaning and pronunciation, then open its page.

Without diacritics

وقالت اولاهم لاخراهم فما كان لكم علينا من فضل فذوقوا العذاب بما كنتم تكسبون

Then the first will say To the last: "See then! No advantage have ye Over us; so taste ye Of the Penalty for all That ye did!"
