فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهَا قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا لَضَآلُّونَ Qur’an Al-Qalam (68:26)
Falamm a raawh a q a loo inn a la da lloon a
But as soon as they beheld [the garden and could not recognize] it, they exclaimed, "Surely we have lost our way!"

Their fond dreams were dispelled when they found that the garden had been changed out of all recognition. It was as if they had come to some place other than their own smiling garden. Where they had expected to reap a rich harvest, there was only a howling wilderness. They reflected. Their first thought was of their own personal loss, the loss of their labour and the loss of their capital. They had plotted to keep out others from the fruits: now, as it happened, the loss was their own.
