۞ الۤرۚ 
تِلۡكَ ءَایَـٰتُ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ وَقُرۡءَانࣲ مُّبِینࣲ

رُّبَمَا یَوَدُّ ٱلَّذِینَ كَفَرُوا۟ لَوۡ كَانُوا۟ مُسۡلِمِینَ
ذَرۡهُمۡ یَأۡكُلُوا۟ وَیَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ وَیُلۡهِهِمُ ٱلۡأَمَلُۖ فَسَوۡفَ یَعۡلَمُونَ

وَمَاۤ أَهۡلَكۡنَا مِن قَرۡیَةٍ إِلَّا وَلَهَا كِتَابࣱ مَّعۡلُوم
The main theme of the Surah is divine guidance, and people’s response. Allah’s warns those who deny this message and as a reminder of these warnings, we have here the stories of Prophet Lot’s people, Thamud and other groups.
ا ل ر 
یہ آیات ہیں کتاب الٰہی 
اور قرآن مبین کی 

بعید نہیں کہ ایک وقت وہ آ جائے 
جب وہی لوگ جنہوں نے آج 
(دعوت اسلام کو قبول کرنے سے) 
انکار کر دیا ہے 
پچھتا پچھتا کر کہیں گے کہ 
کاش ہم نے سر تسلیم خم کر دیا ہوتا 

چھوڑو اِنہیں کھائیں، پییں، مزے کریں، اور بھلاوے میں ڈالے رکھے اِن کو جھوٹی امید 
عنقریب اِنہیں معلوم ہو جائے گا

ہم نے اِس سے پہلے جس بستی کو بھی ہلاک کیا ہے اس کے لیے ایک خاص مہلت عمل لکھی جاچکی تھی
