The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the heaven adorned with big stars. 1 by the promised day, 2 By one that witnesses, and the subject of the witness;- 3 Cursed were the companions of the trench 4 Of fire fuel-fed, 5 When they sat by it 6 And to that which they did to the believers were witnesses. 7 whom they hate for no other reason than that they believe in God, the Almighty, the One to whom all praise is due, 8 Him unto Whom belongeth the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is of all things the Witness. 9 Those who persecute the believing men and women without repenting will suffer the torment of hell and that of the burning fire. 10 Verily, those who believe and do righteous good deeds, for them will be Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise). That is the great success. 11 Truly strong is the Grip (and Power) of thy Lord. 12 it is He who begins and repeats [His creation], 13 He is the All-forgiving, the Most Loving One, 14 The Lord of the glorious Throne, 15 a sovereign doer of whatever He wills. 16 Has there reached you the story of the soldiers - 17 of Pharaoh and Thamud? 18 Yet the infidels persist in denial. 19 although Allah surrounds them. 20 In fact it (what they deny) is the Noble Qur’an. 21 in a guarded tablet. 22
