Muhammad Habib Shakir: Surah Saba (Sheba) 14
فَلَمَّا
قَضَيْنَا
عَلَيْهِ
ٱلْمَوْتَ
مَا
دَلَّهُمْ
عَلَىٰ
مَوْتِهِۦٓ
إِلَّا
دَآبَّةُ
ٱلْأَرْضِ
تَأْكُلُ
مِنسَأَتَهُۥ
ۖ
فَلَمَّا
خَرَّ
تَبَيَّنَتِ
ٱلْجِنُّ
أَن
لَّوْ
كَانُوا۟
يَعْلَمُونَ
ٱلْغَيْبَ
مَا
لَبِثُوا۟
فِى
ٱلْعَذَابِ
ٱلْمُهِينِ
Muhammad Habib Shakir:
But when We decreed death for him, naught showed them his death but a creature of the earth that ate away his staff; and when it fell down, the jinn came to know plainly that if they had known the unseen, they would not have tarried in abasing torment.
