وَ قَطَّعۡنٰہُمُ اثۡنَتَیۡ عَشۡرَۃَ اَسۡبَاطًا اُمَمًا ؕ وَ اَوۡحَیۡنَاۤ اِلٰی مُوۡسٰۤی اِذِ اسۡتَسۡقٰىہُ قَوۡمُہٗۤ اَنِ اضۡرِبۡ بِّعَصَاکَ الۡحَجَرَ ۚ فَانۡۢبَجَسَتۡ مِنۡہُ اثۡنَتَا عَشۡرَۃَ عَیۡنًا ؕ قَدۡ عَلِمَ کُلُّ اُنَاسٍ مَّشۡرَبَہُمۡ ؕ وَ ظَلَّلۡنَا عَلَیۡہِمُ الۡغَمَامَ وَ اَنۡزَلۡنَا عَلَیۡہِمُ الۡمَنَّ وَ السَّلۡوٰی ؕ کُلُوۡا مِنۡ طَیِّبٰتِ مَا رَزَقۡنٰکُمۡ ؕ وَ مَا ظَلَمُوۡنَا وَ لٰکِنۡ کَانُوۡۤا اَنۡفُسَہُمۡ یَظۡلِمُوۡنَ ﴿۱۶۰﴾

160. We divided them (i.e. Children of Israel) into twelve tribal communities. And We revealed to Musa (Moses) when his people asked him for water: ‘Strike the rock with your staff.’ Then, twelve fountains gushed out from it. All the people came to know their drinking place. And We shaded them with clouds, and We sent down manna and quails upon them (and said to them:) ‘Eat of the good things We have provided you.’ And they did not harm Us, but they used to wrong only themselves.

(الْأَعْرَاف، 7 : 160)
