The Sun
In the name of Allah, the
Beneficent, the Merciful.
[91:1]
By the sun and his brightness,
[91:2]
And the moon when she followeth him,
[91:3]
And the day when it revealeth him,
[91:4]
And the night when it enshroudeth him,
[91:5]
And the heaven and Him Who
built it,
[91:6]
And the earth and Him Who
spread it,
[91:7]
And a soul and Him Who
perfected it
[91:8]
And inspired it (with conscience of) what is
wrong for it and (what is) right for it.
[91:9]
He is indeed successful who causeth it to grow,
[91:10]
And he is indeed a failure who stunteth it.
[91:11]
(The tribe of) Thamud denied (the truth) in
their rebellious pride,
[91:12]
When the basest of them broke forth
[91:13]
And the messenger of Allah said: It is the
she-camel of Allah, so let her drink!
[91:14]
But they denied him, and they hamstrung her, so
Allah doomed them for their sin and rased (their dwellings).
[91:15]
He dreadeth not the sequel (of events).
