91 - The Sun |
|
|
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. |
|
|
1 | I swear by the sun and its brilliance, |
|
2 | And the moon when it follows the sun, |
|
3 | And the day when it shows it, |
|
5 | And the heaven and Him Who made it, |
|
6 | And the earth and Him Who extended it, |
|
7 | And the soul and Him Who made it perfect, |
|
8 | Then He inspired it to understand what is right and wrong for it; |
|
9 | He will indeed be successful who purifies it, |
|
10 | And he will indeed fail who corrupts it. |
|
11 | Samood gave the lie (to the truth) in their inordinacy, |
|
12 | When the most unfortunate of them broke forth with |
|
13 | So Allah's apostle said to them (Leave alone) Allah's she-camel, and (give) her (to) drink. |
|
14 | But they called him a liar and slaughtered her, therefore their Lord crushed them for their sin and levelled them (with the ground). |
|
15 | And He fears not its consequence. |
