وَإِلَى
مَدْيَنَ
أَخَاهُمْ
شُعَيْبًا
قَالَ
يَاقَوْمِ
اعْبُدُوا
اللَّهَ
مَا
لَكُم
مِّنْ
إِلَهٍ
غَيْرُهُ
قَدْ
جَاءَتْكُم
بَيِّنَةٌ
مِّن
رَّبِّكُمْ
فَأَوْفُوا
الْكَيْلَ
وَالْمِيزَانَ
وَلَا
تَبْخَسُوا
النَّاسَ
أَشْيَاءَهُمْ
وَلَا
تُفْسِدُوا
فِي
الْأَرْضِ
بَعْدَ
إِصْلَاحِهَا
ذَلِكُمْ
خَيْرٌ
لَّكُمْ
إِن
كُنتُم
مُّؤْمِنِينَ

We sent to the people of Midian their brother Shu'ayb who also told his people to worship God their only Lord. He said, "A guidance has come to you from your Lord. Maintain proper measures and weights in trade. Do not cause any deficiency in people's property or destroy the land after it has been reformed. This is for your own good, if you have any faith.
