Surah Al-Qamar — Ayah 28 (54:28)
وَنَبِّئۡهُمۡ أَنَّ ٱلۡمَآءَ قِسۡمَةُۢ بَيۡنَهُمۡۖ كُلُّ شِرۡبٖ مُّحۡتَضَرٞ ٢٨
English translation (Saheeh International)
And inform them that the water is shared between them,1 each [day of] drink attended [by turn].
- - i.e., between the tribe of Thamūd and the she-camel - a day for each to drink.
Brief commentary
Tell them that the water of their well is divided between them and the she-camel: one day for it and one day for them. Each turn will be attended by its owner alone on the day allocated to him.
