Surah Adh-Dhariyat — Ayah 44 (51:44)
فَعَتَوۡاْ عَنۡ أَمۡرِ رَبِّهِمۡ فَأَخَذَتۡهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمۡ يَنظُرُونَ ٤٤
English translation (Saheeh International)
But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.
Brief commentary
But they were arrogant to the command of their Lord and they were haughty to faith and obedience, so the thunderbolt of punishment seized them whilst they were waiting it to come down, as they were promised punishment three days before it came.
