أَفَلَا يَنظُرُونَ إِلَى ٱلۡإِبِلِ كَيۡفَ خُلِقَتۡ ﴿١٧﴾

Afala yanthuroona ila alibili kayfa khuliqat

Then do they not look at the camels - how they are created

وَإِلَى ٱلسَّمَآءِ كَيۡفَ رُفِعَتۡ ﴿١٨﴾

Waila alssamai kayfa rufiʿat

And at the sky - how it is raised

Waila aljibali kayfa nusibat

And at the mountains - how they are erected

وَإِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ كَيۡفَ سُطِحَتۡ ﴿٢٠﴾

Waila alardi kayfa sutihat

And at the earth - how it is spread out

فَذَكِّرۡ إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُذَكِّرٞ ﴿٢١﴾

So remind, [O Muhammad]; you are only a reminder

لَّسۡتَ عَلَيۡهِم بِمُصَيۡطِرٍ ﴿٢٢﴾

Lasta ʿalayhim bimusaytirin

You are not over them a controller

إِلَّا مَن تَوَلَّىٰ وَكَفَرَ ﴿٢٣﴾

Illa man tawalla wakafara

However, he who turns away and disbelieves

فَيُعَذِّبُهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡعَذَابَ ٱلۡأَكۡبَرَ ﴿٢٤﴾

Fayuʿaththibuhu Allahu alʿathaba alakbara

Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment

إِنَّ إِلَيۡنَآ إِيَابَهُمۡ ﴿٢٥﴾

Inna ilayna iyabahum

Indeed, to Us is their return

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيۡنَا حِسَابَهُم ﴿٢٦﴾

Thumma inna ʿalayna hisabahum

Then indeed, upon Us is their account
