اَوْ خَلْقًا مِمَّا یَكْبُرُ فٖی صُدُورِكُمْۚ فَسَیَقُولُونَ مَنْ یُعٖیدُنَاؕ قُلِ الَّذٖی فَطَرَكُمْ اَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍۚ فَسَیُنْغِضُونَ اِلَیْكَ رُؤُ𐻿سَهُمْ وَیَقُولُونَ مَتٰى هُوَؕ قُلْ عَسٰٓى اَنْ یَكُونَ قَرٖیبًا

Aw khalqan mimma yakburu fee sudoorikum fasayaqooloona man yuAAeeduna quli allathee fatarakum awwala marratin fasayunghidoona ilayka ruoosahum wayaqooloona mata huwa qul AAasa an yakoona qareeban
