Quran 27:52 — An-Naml, verse 52
M. A. S. Abdel Haleem · selected translation
As a result of their evil deeds, their homes are desolate ruins- there truly is a sign in this for those who know-
فَتِلْكَ بُيُوتُهُمْ خَاوِيَةً بِمَا ظَلَمُوا ۗ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لِقَوْمٍ يَعْلَمُونَ
fatil'ka buyūtuhum khāwiyatan bimā ẓalamū inna fī dhālika laāyatan liqawmin yaʿlamūna
