Saba' · Ayah 19 · Juz 22 · Page 430

فَقَالُواْ رَبَّنَا بَٰعِدۡ بَيۡنَ أَسۡفَارِنَا وَظَلَمُوٓاْ أَنفُسَهُمۡ فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُمۡ أَحَادِيثَ وَمَزَّقۡنَٰهُمۡ كُلَّ مُمَزَّقٍۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٖ لِّكُلِّ صَبَّارٖ شَكُورٖ ١٩

Faqālū rabbanā bāʿid bayna asfārinā wa ẓalamū anfusahum fajaʿalnāhum aḥādītha wa mazzaqnāhum kulla mumazzaq, inna fī dhālika laʾāyātil likulli ṣabbārin shakūr.

But [insolently] they said, "Our Lord, lengthen the distance between our journeys," and wronged themselves, so We made them narrations1 and dispersed them in total dispersion. Indeed in that are signs for everyone patient and grateful.
