The consequences of depriving the needy of nutrition, the story of the garden owners

Ayah 17 - 33

17
ﱁ ﱂ ﱃ ﱄ ﱅ ﱆ ﱇ ﱈ ﱉ ﱊ
EN
We have tried you as We tried the owners of the garden when they vowed to gather the fruits in the morning
18
ﱌ ﱍ
EN
But did not add: "If God may please."
19
ﱏ ﱐ ﱑ ﱒ ﱓ ﱔ ﱕ
EN
Then a calamity from your Lord fell upon it, but they remained fast asleep.
20
ﱗ ﱘ
EN
So by the morning it seemed as though picked clean.
21
ﱚ ﱛ
EN
At daybreak they called to each other:
22
ﱝ ﱞ ﱟ ﱠ ﱡ ﱢ ﱣ
EN
"If you want to gather the fruits, let us go early to the plantation."
23
ﱥ ﱦ ﱧ
EN
So they departed, talking in low voices:
24
ﱩ ﱪ ﱫ ﱬ ﱭ ﱮ
EN
"Let no needy person come to you within it today."
25
ﱰ ﱱ ﱲ ﱳ
EN
They left early in the morning bent on this purpose.
26
ﱵ ﱶ ﱷ ﱸ ﱹ
EN
When they saw (and did not recognise it) they said: "Surely we have lost the way.
27
ﱻ ﱼ ﱽ
EN
No. In fact we have been deprived of it."
28
ﱿ ﲀ ﲁ ﲂ ﲃ ﲄ ﲅ
EN
One who was temperate among them, said: "Did I not say: 'Why don't you priase God?'"
29
ﲇ ﲈ ﲉ ﲊ ﲋ ﲌ
EN
"Glory to our Lord," they said; we were really in the wrong."
30
ﲎ ﲏ ﲐ ﲑ ﲒ
EN
Then they started blaming one another,
31
ﲔ ﲕ ﲖ ﲗ ﲘ
EN
Saying: "Alas the woe, we were iniquitous.
32
ﲚ ﲛ ﲜ ﲝ ﲞ ﲟ ﲠ ﲡ ﲢ ﲣ
EN
Maybe our Lord will give us better than this. We turn to our Lord in supplication."
33
ﲥ ﲦﲧ ﲨ ﲩ ﲪﲫ ﲬ ﲭ ﲮ
EN
Such is Our chastisement; and the punishment of the Hereafter will be greater, if only they knew!
