6. which of you is mad

نٓ ۚ وَٱلْقَلَمِ وَمَا يَسْطُرُونَ١
مَآ أَنتَ بِنِعْمَةِ رَبِّكَ بِمَجْنُونٍ٢
وَإِنَّ لَكَ لَأَجْرًا غَيْرَ مَمْنُونٍ٣
وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَىٰ خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ٤
فَسَتُبْصِرُ وَيُبْصِرُونَ٥
بِأَييِّكُمُ ٱلْمَفْتُونُ٦
إِنَّ رَبَّكَ هُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِمَن ضَلَّ عَن سَبِيلِهِۦ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِٱلْمُهْتَدِينَ٧
