فَكَأَيِّن

مِّن

قَرْيَةٍ

أَهْلَكْنَاهَا

وَهِيَ

ظَالِمَةٌ

فَهِيَ

خَاوِيَةٌ

عَلَى

عُرُوشِهَا

وَبِئْرٍ

مُّعَطَّلَةٍ

وَقَصْرٍ

مَّشِيدٍ

How many were the unjust dwellers of the towns that We destroyed. From their trellises to their lofty mansions, all were toppled and their wells were abandoned.
