قَدْ مَكَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ فَأَتَى ٱللَّهُ بُنْيَٰنَهُم مِّنَ ٱلْقَوَاعِدِ فَخَرَّ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّقْفُ مِن فَوْقِهِمْ وَأَتَىٰهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ
How to read it
Qad' makara -lladhīna min qab'lihim' fa'atā-llahu bun'yānahum mmina l-qawāʻidi fakharra ʻalay'himu ssaq'fu min faw'qihim' wa'atāhumu l-ʻadhābu min' ḥay'thu lā yash'ʻurūna
Those before them did also plot (against Allah's Way): but Allah took their structures from their foundations, and the roof fell down on them from above; and the Wrath seized them from directions they did not perceive.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali
