قُلْ أَرَءَيْتُمْ إِنْ أَصْبَحَ مَآؤُكُمْ غَوْرًا فَمَن يَأْتِيكُم بِمَآءٍ مَّعِينٍۭ
Qul ara'aytum in asbaha maaa'ukum ghawran famai yaateekum bimaaa'im ma'een
Powiedz: "Jak wam się wydaje? Jeśli rankiem zniknie wam woda w głębi ziemi, to kto wam dostarczy wtedy wody źródlanej?"
Say, "Have you considered: if your water were to sink deep into the earth, who then could bring you flowing water?"
Al-Mulk opens with dominion over all things and closes on the most domestic fact available: whether there is water to drink. Ghawr is water that has sunk past reach; maʿīn is water running where it can be seen, and the question turns on the distance between the two. The surah ends with three consecutive verses beginning qul, and this last one asks the plainest thing of the three.
