وَضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا قَرْيَةً كَانَتْ اٰمِنَةً مُّطْمَىِٕنَّةً يَّأْتِيْهَا رِزْقُهَا رَغَدًا مِّنْ كُلِّ مَكَانٍ فَكَفَرَتْ بِاَنْعُمِ اللّٰهِ فَاَذَاقَهَا اللّٰهُ لِبَاسَ الْجُوْعِ وَالْخَوْفِ بِمَا كَانُوْا يَصْنَعُوْنَ ۝١١٢

Wa ḍoroballāhu maṡalan qoryatan kānat āminatam muṭma'innatay ya'tīhā rizquhā roghodam min kulli makānin fa kafarot bi'an‘umillāhi fa ażāqohallāhu libāsal-jū‘i wal-khoufi bimā kānū yaṣna‘ūn

Meaning

And Allah cites the example of a town that was secure and peaceful, with its livelihood coming to it abundantly from every direction. But then it turned unappreciative of Allah’s blessings, so Allah made it taste the robe of hunger and fear, because of what they used to craft.
