وَلَوْ And if أَنَّ [that] أَهْلَ people ٱلْقُرَىٰٓ (of) the cities ءَامَنُوا۟ (had) believed وَٱتَّقَوْا۟ and feared Allah لَفَتَحْنَا surely We (would have) opened عَلَيْهِم upon them بَرَكَـٰتٍۢ blessings مِّنَ from ٱلسَّمَآءِ the heaven وَٱلْأَرْضِ and the earth وَلَـٰكِن but كَذَّبُوا۟ they denied فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُم So We seized them بِمَا for what كَانُوا۟ they used to يَكْسِبُونَ earn ٩٦
And if only the people of the cities had believed and feared Allāh, We would have opened [i.e., bestowed] upon them blessings from the heaven and the earth; but they denied [the messengers], so We seized them for what they were earning.
