آیه: 18

وَتَحۡسَبُهُمۡ أَيۡقَاظٗا وَهُمۡ رُقُودٞۚ وَنُقَلِّبُهُمۡ ذَاتَ ٱلۡيَمِينِ وَذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِۖ وَكَلۡبُهُم بَٰسِطٞ ذِرَاعَيۡهِ بِٱلۡوَصِيدِۚ لَوِ ٱطَّلَعۡتَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ لَوَلَّيۡتَ مِنۡهُمۡ فِرَارٗا وَلَمُلِئۡتَ مِنۡهُمۡ رُعۡبٗا

18. You would have thought them awake while they were asleep, and We turned them on their right and on their left sides¹³, while their dog (lay) outstretching its forelegs at the entrance. Had you looked at them you would certainly have turned back from them in flight, and you would have been filled with awe of them.

13. It is a common medical practice nowadays to turn bed-ridden patients on their sides every few hours so that they do not get bedsores resulting from prolonged pressure on the skin.
