Sura 27 An-Naml (The Ant), ayah 44

  1. قِيلَ لَهَا ادْخُلِي الصَّرْحَ ۖ فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ حَسِبَتْهُ لُجَّةً وَكَشَفَتْ عَنْ سَاقَيْهَا ۚ قَالَ إِنَّهُ صَرْحٌ مُمَرَّدٌ مِنْ قَوَارِيرَ ۗ قَالَتْ رَبِّ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَأَسْلَمْتُ مَعَ سُلَيْمَانَ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ

    قِيلَ
    It was said
    لَهَا
    to her,
    ٱدْخُلِى
    "Enter
    ٱلصَّرْحَ
    the palace."
    فَلَمَّا
    Then when
    رَأَتْهُ
    she saw it,
    حَسِبَتْهُ
    she thought it
    لُجَّةً
    (was) a pool,
    وَكَشَفَتْ
    and she uncovered
    عَن
    [on]
    سَاقَيْهَا
    her shins.
    قَالَ
    He said,
    إِنَّهُۥ
    "Indeed, it
    صَرْحٌ
    (is) a palace
    مُّمَرَّدٌ
    made smooth
    مِّن
    of
    قَوَارِيرَ
    glass."
    قَالَتْ
    She said,
    رَبِّ
    "My Lord,
    إِنِّى
    indeed, I
    ظَلَمْتُ
    [I] have wronged
    نَفْسِى
    myself,
    وَأَسْلَمْتُ
    and I submit
    مَعَ
    with
    سُلَيْمَٰنَ
    Sulaiman
    لِلَّهِ
    to Allah,
    رَبِّ
    (the) Lord
    ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ
    (of) the worlds."

    She was told, "Enter the palace." But when she saw it, she thought it was a body of water and uncovered her shins (to wade through). He said, "Indeed, it is a palace (whose floor is) made smooth with glass." She said, "My Lord, indeed I have wronged myself, and I submit with Solomon to Allah, Lord of the worlds."
