(16:112)

وَضَرَبَ  ٱللَّـهُ  مَثَلًا  قَرْيَةً  كَانَتْ  ءَامِنَةً  مُّطْمَئِنَّةً  يَأْتِيهَا  رِزْقُهَا  رَغَدًا  مِّن  كُلِّ  مَكَانٍ  فَكَفَرَتْ  بِأَنْعُمِ  ٱللَّـهِ  فَأَذَٰقَهَا  ٱللَّـهُ  لِبَاسَ  ٱلْجُوعِ  وَٱلْخَوْفِ  بِمَا  كَانُوا۟  يَصْنَعُونَ wa‑ḍaraba allāhu mathalan qaryatan kānat āminatan muṭmaʾinnatan yaʾtīhā rizquhā raghadan min kulli makānin fa‑kafarat bi‑anʿumi allāhi fa‑adhāqahā allāhu libāsa l‑jūʿi wa‑l‑khawfi bi‑mā kānū yaṣnaʿūna
Allah sets forth a Parable: a city enjoying security and quiet, abundantly supplied with sustenance from every place: Yet was it ungrateful for the favours of Allah: so Allah made it taste of hunger and terror (in extremes) (closing in on it) like a garment (from every side), because of the (evil) which (its people) wrought.
