ٱلْكَهْف : ٥٩

  • وَتِلۡكَ And these
  • ٱلۡقُرَىٰٓ [the] towns
  • أَهۡلَكۡنَٰهُمۡ We destroyed them
  • لَمَّا when
  • ظَلَمُواْ they wronged
  • وَجَعَلۡنَا and We made
  • لِمَهۡلِكِهِم for their destruction
  • مَّوۡعِدٗا an appointed time
And those cities - We destroyed them when they wronged, and We made for their destruction an appointed time.
And those towns, that is to say, the inhabitants of those [towns], such as 'aad and Thamood, as well as others, We destroyed them when they did evil, [when] they disbelieved, and We appointed for their destruction (a variant reading [for mahlikihim] has muhlakihim) a tryst.
