وَسْـَٔلْهُمْ عَنِ الْقَرْیَةِ الَّتِیْ كَانَتْ حَاضِرَةَ الْبَحْرِ اِذْ یَعْدُوْنَ فِی السَّبْتِ اِذْ تَاْتِیْهِمْ حِیْتَانُهُمْ یَوْمَ سَبْتِهِمْ شُرَّعًا وَّیَوْمَ لَا یَسْبِتُوْنَ لَا تَاْتِیْهِمْ كَذٰلِكَ نَبْلُوْهُمْ بِمَا كَانُوْا یَفْسُقُوْنَ ۟
Was'alhum 'anil qaryatil latee kaanat haadiratal bahri iz ya'doona fis Sabti iz ta'teehim heetaanuhum yawma Sabtihim shurra'anw wa yawma laa yasbitoona laa ta'teehim; kazaalika nabloohum bimaa kaanoo yafsuqoon
“Ask them concerning the town standing close by the sea. Behold! they transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath. For on the day of their Sabbath their fish did come to them, openly holding up their heads, but on the day they had no Sabbath, they came not: thus did We make a trial of them, for they were given to transgression.”
