So Allāh seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression]..
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةًۭ لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰٓ
Indeed in that is a lesson [i.e., warning] for whoever would fear [Allāh].

وَأَغْطَشَ لَيْلَهَا وَأَخْرَجَ ضُحَىٰهَا
And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.
