There's something wrong with that passage, it's rendered abnormally. Matres lectionis seem misplaced, and the passage seems to be cut mistakenly. Though I don't know arabic and don't read the writing all that good.

There's nothing wrong with it, what's before the dot is the first "Aya", what comes after the dot is the name of the "Surah" which happened to be "Al Teen" which translates to "The figs", then the number of the Aya which is "1"

You can read the whole Surah here: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/V2CP4vwKRAc/maxresdefault.jpg
