Surah Al-Qalam — Ayah 17 (68:17)
إِنَّا بَلَوۡنَٰهُمۡ كَمَا بَلَوۡنَآ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ إِذۡ أَقۡسَمُواْ لَيَصۡرِمُنَّهَا مُصۡبِحِينَ ١٧
English translation (Saheeh International)
Indeed, We have tried them as We tried the companions of the garden, when they swore to cut its fruit in the [early] morning
Brief commentary
Indeed, I have tested these idolaters with drought and hunger, just as I tested the people of the garden when they swore that they will quickly harvest its fruits in the morning, so that the poor cannot eat from them.
