Back to full surahAn-Nisâ’ 4:154
وَرَفَعْنَا فَوْقَهُمُ الطُّورَ بِمِيثَاقِهِمْ وَقُلْنَا لَهُمُ ادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا وَقُلْنَا لَهُمْ لَا تَعْدُوا فِي السَّبْتِ وَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُم مِّيثَاقًا غَلِيظًا ١٥٤
WarafaAAna fawqahumu alttoora bimeethaqihim waqulna lahumu odkhuloo albaba sujjadan waqulna lahum la taAAdoo fee alssabti waakhathna minhum meethaqan ghaleethan
And (when the Jews again rejected the injunctions contained in the Torah,) We raised (and suspended Mount) Tur over them in order to take a (firm) promise from them. And We commanded them: ‘Enter the gate (of this city—the Ailia gate) prostrate (in gratitude),’ and We (also) said to them: ‘Do not also violate the Sabbath (prohibition of fishing on Saturday), and We took from them a reiterated and firm promise.’ (4:154)
