Al-Baqarah 2:243 ۞ الم تر الى الذين خرجوا من ديارهم وهم الوف حذر الموت فقال لهم الله موتوا ثم احياهم ان الله لذو فضل على الناس ولاكن اكثر الناس لا يشكرون ٢٤٣
۞ أَلَمۡ
تَرَ
إِلَى
ٱلَّذِينَ
خَرَجُواْ
مِن
دِيَٰرِهِمۡ
وَهُمۡ
أُلُوفٌ
حَذَرَ
ٱلۡمَوۡتِ
فَقَالَ
لَهُمُ
ٱللَّهُ
مُوتُواْ
ثُمَّ
أَحۡيَٰهُمۡۚ
إِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
لَذُو
فَضۡلٍ
عَلَى
ٱلنَّاسِ
وَلَٰكِنَّ
أَكۡثَرَ
ٱلنَّاسِ
لَا
يَشۡكُرُونَ
