Indeed, We have placed constellations in the sky, and adorned it for all to see. And We protected it from every accursed devil, except the one eavesdropping, who is then pursued by a visible flare. Quran 15:16~18 [Surah al-Hijr (Rock City)]

وَلَقَدۡ جَعَلۡنَا فِی ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ بُرُوجࣰا وَزَیَّنَّـٰهَا لِلنَّـٰظِرِینَ وَحَفِظۡنَـٰهَا مِن كُلِّ شَیۡطَـٰنࣲ رَّجِیمٍ إِلَّا مَنِ ٱسۡتَرَقَ ٱلسَّمۡعَ فَأَتۡبَعَهُۥ شِهَابࣱ مُّبِینࣱ
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.
یہ ہماری کار فرمائی ہے کہ آسمان میں ہم نے بہت سے مضبوط قلعے بنائے، اُن کو دیکھنے والوں کے لیے مزین کیا اور ہر شیطان مردود سے ان کو محفوظ کر دیا کوئی شیطان ان میں راہ نہیں پا سکتا، الا یہ کہ کچھ سن گن لے لے اور جب وہ سن گن لینے کی کوشش کرتا ہے تو ایک شعلہ روشن اُس کا پیچھا کرتا ہے
