Sura XCI (91)
The Sun

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the
Sun and his noonday brightness!
By the
Moon when she followeth him!
By the
Day when it revealeth his glory!
By the
Night when it enshroudeth him!
By the
Heaven and Him who built it!
By the
Earth and Him who spread it forth!
And
breathed into it its wickedness and its piety,
Blessed
now is he who hath kept it pure,
91:10 And undone is he who hath corrupted
it!
Themoud
in his impiety rejected the message of the Lord,
When
the greatest wretch among them rushed up: --
Said
the Apostle of God to them -- "The Camel of God! let her drink."
But
they treated him as an impostor and hamstrung her.
So
their Lord destroyed them for their crime, and visited all alike:
Nor
feared he the issue.
