126. "(Allah), your Lord and Cherisher and the Lord and Cherisher of your fathers of old?"


127. Fakaththaboohu fa-innahum lamuhdaroona

127. But they rejected him, and they will certainly be called up (for punishment),-


128. Illa AAibada Allahi almukhlaseena

129. And We left (this blessing) for him among generations (to come) in later times:


130. Salamun AAala il yaseena
