Tafheem ul Quran
Surah 10 Yunus, Ayat 24-24
اِنَّمَا مَثَلُ الۡحَيٰوةِ الدُّنۡيَا كَمَآءٍ اَنۡزَلۡنٰهُ مِنَ السَّمَآءِ فَاخۡتَلَطَ بِهٖ نَبَاتُ الۡاَرۡضِ مِمَّا يَاۡكُلُ النَّاسُ وَالۡاَنۡعَامُؕ حَتّٰۤى اِذَاۤ اَخَذَتِ الۡاَرۡضُ زُخۡرُفَهَا وَازَّيَّنَتۡ وَظَنَّ اَهۡلُهَاۤ اَنَّهُمۡ قٰدِرُوۡنَ عَلَيۡهَاۤ ۙ اَتٰٮهَاۤ اَمۡرُنَا لَيۡلًا اَوۡ نَهَارًا فَجَعَلۡنٰهَا حَصِيۡدًا كَاَنۡ لَّمۡ تَغۡنَ بِالۡاَمۡسِ ؕ كَذٰلِكَ نُـفَصِّلُ الۡاٰيٰتِ لِقَوۡمٍ يَّتَفَكَّرُوۡنَ
﴿10:24﴾
(10:24) The example of the life of this world (which has enamoured you into
becoming heedless to Our signs) is that of water that We sent down from the
heaven which causes the vegetation of the earth, which sustains men and cattle,
to grow luxuriantly. But when the earth took on its golden raiment and became
well adorned and the owners believed that they had full control over their lands
Our command came upon them by night or by day, and We convened it into a stubble,
as though it had not blossomed yesterday. Thus do We expound the signs for a
people who reflect.
