وَلَيالٍ عَشرٍ

And ten nights.

وَالشَّفعِ وَالوَترِ

And by the even and the odd.

وَاللَّيلِ إِذا يَسرِ

And the night as it passes.

هَل في ذٰلِكَ قَسَمٌ لِذي حِجرٍ

Is there in this an oath for a man of sense?

أَلَم تَرَ كَيفَ فَعَلَ رَبُّكَ بِعادٍ

Didn’t you see how your Lord dealt with Aad?
