وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍۢ وَكَانَ عَرْشُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلْمَآءِ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًۭا ۗ وَلَئِن قُلْتَ إِنَّكُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ ٱلْمَوْتِ لَيَقُولَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ
How to read it
Wa huwa -lladhī khalaqa ssamāwāti wal-'ar'ḍa fī sittati 'ayyāmin wakāna ʻar'shuhu ʻalāl-mā'i liyab'luwakum' 'ayyukum' 'aḥ'sanu ʻamalan . wala'in qulta 'innakum mmab'ʻūthūna min[m] baʻ'di l-maw'ti layaqūlanna -lladhīna kafarū 'in' hādhā 'illā siḥ'run mmubīnun
He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days - and His Throne was over the waters - that He might try you, which of you is best in conduct. But if thou wert to say to them, "Ye shall indeed be raised up after death", the Unbelievers would be sure to say, "This is nothing but obvious sorcery!"
