1 Surahs6 Versesركوع 133
7:94
وَمَآ
And not
أَرۡسَلۡنَا
We sent
فِى
in
قَرۡيَةٍ
a city
مِّن
any
نَّبِىٍّ
Prophet
إِلَّآ
except
أَخَذۡنَآ
We seized
أَهۡلَهَا
its people
بِٱلۡبَأۡسَآءِ
with adversity
وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ
and hardship
لَعَلَّهُمۡ
so that they may
يَضَّرَّعُونَ
(become) humble
٩٤
And We sent to no city a prophet [who was denied] except that We seized its people with poverty and hardship that they might humble themselves [to Allāh].
7:95
ثُمَّ
Then
بَدَّلۡنَا
We changed
مَكَانَ
(in) place
ٱلسَّيِّئَةِ
(of) the bad
ٱلۡحَسَنَةَ
the good
حَتَّىٰ
until
عَفَواۡ
they increased
وَّقَالُواۡ
and said
قَدۡ
Verily
مَسَّ
(had) touched
ءَابَآءَنَا
our forefathers
ٱلضَّرَّآءُ
the adversity
وَٱلسَّرَّآءُ
and the ease
فَأَخَذۡنَـٰهُم
So We seized them
بَغۡتَةً
suddenly
وَهُمۡ
while they
لَا
(did) not
يَشۡعُرُونَ
perceive
٩٥
Then We exchanged in place of the bad [condition], good, until they increased [and prospered] and said, "Our fathers [also] were touched with hardship and ease."1 So We seized them suddenly while they did not perceive.2
7:96
وَلَوۡ
And if
أَنَّ
[that]
أَهۡلَ
people
ٱلۡقُرَىٰٓ
(of) the cities
ءَامَنُواۡ
(had) believed
وَٱتَّقَوۡاۡ
and feared Allah
لَفَتَحۡنَا
surely We (would have) opened
عَلَيۡهِم
upon them
بَرَكَـٰتٍ
blessings
مِّنَ
from
ٱلسَّمَآءِ
the heaven
وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ
and the earth
وَلَـٰكِن
but
كَذَّبُواۡ
they denied
فَأَخَذۡنَـٰهُم
So We seized them
بِمَا
for what
كَانُواۡ
they used to
يَكۡسِبُونَ
earn
٩٦
And if only the people of the cities had believed and feared Allāh, We would have opened [i.e., bestowed] upon them blessings from the heaven and the earth; but they denied [the messengers], so We seized them for what they were earning.1
7:97
أَفَأَمِنَ
Then did feel secure
أَهۡلُ
(the) people
ٱلۡقُرَىٰٓ
(of) the cities
أَن
that
يَأۡتِيَهُم
comes to them
بَأۡسُنَا
Our punishment
بَيَـٰتًا
(at) night
وَهُمۡ
while they
نَآئِمُونَ
(were) asleep
٩٧
Then, did the people of the cities feel secure from Our punishment coming to them at night while they were asleep?
7:98
أَوَأَمِنَ
Or felt secure
أَهۡلُ
(the) people
ٱلۡقُرَىٰٓ
(of) the cities
أَن
that
يَأۡتِيَهُم
comes to them
بَأۡسُنَا
Our punishment
ضُحًى
(in) daylight
وَهُمۡ
while they
يَلۡعَبُونَ
(were) playing
٩٨
Or did the people of the cities feel secure from Our punishment coming to them in the morning while they were at play?1
7:99
أَفَأَمِنُواۡ
Then did they feel secure
مَكۡرَ
(from the) plan
ٱللَّهِ‌ۚ
(of) Allah
فَلَا
But not
يَأۡمَنُ
feel secure
مَكۡرَ
(from the) plan
ٱللَّهِ
(of) Allah
إِلَّا
except
ٱلۡقَوۡمُ
the people
ٱلۡخَـٰسِرُونَ
(who are) the losers
٩٩
Then, did they feel secure from the plan of Allāh? But no one feels secure from the plan of Allāh except the losing people.
