لَوْ

أَنزَلْنَا

هَذَا

الْقُرْآنَ

عَلَى

جَبَلٍ

لَّرَأَيْتَهُ

خَاشِعًا

مُّتَصَدِّعًا

مِّنْ

خَشْيَةِ

اللَّهِ

وَتِلْكَ

الْأَمْثَالُ

نَضْرِبُهَا

لِلنَّاسِ

لَعَلَّهُمْ

يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

The people of Paradise and hell are not alike; the people of Paradise are the successful ones. Had We sent down this Quran on a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and rent asunder for fear of God. These are parables which We tell to people so that perhaps they will think.
