85 - The Mansions Of The Stars | |
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. | |
| 1 | By the sky, with its constellations; |
| 2 | By the promised Day (of Judgment); |
| 3 | By one that witnesses, and the subject of the witness;- |
| 4 | Woe to the makers of the pit (of fire), |
| 5 | Fire supplied (abundantly) with fuel: |
| 6 | Behold! they sat over against the (fire), |
| 7 | And they witnessed (all) that they were doing against the Believers. |
| 8 | And they ill-treated them for no other reason than that they believed in Allah, Exalted in Power, Worthy of all Praise!- |
| 9 | Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is Witness to all things. |
| 10 | Those who persecute the Believers, men and women, and do not turn in repentance, will have the Chastisement of Hell: they will have the Chastisement of the Burning Fire. |
| 11 | For those who believe and do righteous deeds, will be Gardens; beneath which rivers flow: that is the great Triumph, |
| 12 | Truly strong is the Grip of thy Lord. |
| 13 | It is He Who creates from the very beginning, and He can restore (life). |
| 14 | And He is the Oft-Forgiving, Full of Loving-Kindness, |
| 15 | Lord of the Throne, Full of all Glory, |
| 16 | Doer (without let) of all that He intends. |
| 17 | Has the story reached thee, of the Forces- |
| 18 | Of Pharaoh and the Thamüd? |
| 19 | And yet the Unbelievers (persist) in rejecting (the Truth)! |
| 20 | But Allah doth encompass them from behind! |
| 21 | Nay, this is a Glorious Quran, |
| 22 | (Inscribed) in a Tablet Preserved! |
