وَقَطَّعْنَـٰهُمُ ٱثْنَتَىْ عَشْرَةَ
أَسْبَاطًا أُمَمًا ۚ وَأَوْحَيْنَآ
إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰٓ إِذِ ٱسْتَسْقَىٰهُ
قَوْمُهُۥٓ أَنِ ٱضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ
ٱلْحَجَرَ ۖ فَٱنۢبَجَسَتْ مِنْهُ
ٱثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ عَيْنًا ۖ قَدْ
عَلِمَ كُلُّ أُنَاسٍ
مَّشْرَبَهُمْ ۚ وَظَلَّلْنَا
عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْغَمَـٰمَ وَأَنزَلْنَا
عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْمَنَّ
وَٱلسَّلْوَىٰ ۖ كُلُوا۟
مِن طَيِّبَـٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنَـٰكُمْ ۚ وَمَا
ظَلَمُونَا وَلَـٰكِن كَانُوٓا۟
أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ
وَإِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱسْكُنُوا۟
هَـٰذِهِ ٱلْقَرْيَةَ وَكُلُوا۟
مِنْهَا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمْ
وَقُولُوا۟ حِطَّةٌ وَٱدْخُلُوا۟
ٱلْبَابَ سُجَّدًا نَّغْفِرْ
لَكُمْ خَطِيٓـَٔـٰتِكُمْ ۚ سَنَزِيدُ
ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ
فَبَدَّلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟
مِنْهُمْ قَوْلًا غَيْرَ ٱلَّذِى
قِيلَ لَهُمْ فَأَرْسَلْنَا
عَلَيْهِمْ رِجْزًا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ
بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَظْلِمُونَ
And We divided
them into twelve
tribes (as distinct)
nations. We revealed
to Musa when his
people asked him
for water (saying):
“Strike the stone with
your stick,” and there
gushed forth out
of it twelve springs,
each group knew its
own place for water.
We shaded them
with the clouds and
sent down upon
them the manna and
quail (saying): “Eat
of the good things
with which We
have provided you.”
They harmed Us not
but they used to
harm themselves.
And (remember) when
it was said to them:
“Dwell in this town
(Jerusalem) and eat
therefrom wherever
you wish, and say,
`(O Allah) forgive our
sins’; and enter the
gate prostrating
(bowing with humility).
We shall forgive you
your wrongdoings.
We shall increase
(the reward) for the
good-doers.” But those
among them who
did wrong, changed
the word that had
been told to them.
So We sent on them
a torment from the
heaven in return for
their wrongdoings.
We discussed these Ayat in Surat Al-Baqarah, which was revealed in Al-Madinah, while these Ayat were revealed in Makkah. We also mentioned the difference between the two narrations, and thus we do not need to repeat it here, all thanks are due to Allah and all the favors are from Him.
