91. Ash-Shams - The Sun

1By oath of the sun and its light
2And by oath of the moon when it follows the sun
3And by oath of the day when it reveals it
4And by oath of the night when it hides it
5And by oath of the heaven and by oath of Him Who made it.
6And by oath of the earth and by oath of Him Who spread it.
7And by oath of the soul and by oath of Him Who made it proper.
8And inspired in it the knowledge of its sins and its piety.
9Indeed successful is the one who made it pure.
10And indeed failed is the one who covered it in sin.
11The tribe of Thamud denied with rebellion.
12When the most wicked among them stood up in defiance.
13So the Noble Messenger of Allah said to them, “Stay away from the she camel of Allah, and from its turn to drink.”
14In response they belied him, and hamstrung the she camel – so Allah put ruin over them because of their sins and flattened their dwellings.
15And He does not fear its coming behind (to take vengeance).
