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