For verily he has led astray from among you many a creature jibillan is the plural of jabīl similar in pattern to qadīm ‘old’; a variant reading has jubulan. Did you not use to comprehend? his enmity and his misguidance or the chastisements that befell them and so believe? And it will be said to them in the Hereafter
