Surah Saba — Sheba

Named for the Sheba (Saba) people, whose prosperous kingdom collapsed through ingratitude when their great dam broke; also recounts the favors shown to David and Solomon.

بِسمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحمٰنِ الرَّحيمِ الحَمدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذى لَهُ ما فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَما فِى الأَرضِ وَلَهُ الحَمدُ فِى الءاخِرَةِ وَهُوَ الحَكيمُ الخَبيرُ

Alhamdu lillahi allathee lahu ma fee alssamawati wama fee alardi walahu alhamdu fee alakhirati wahuwa alhakeemu alkhabeeru
