The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the heavens with constellations, 1 And by the Promised Day. 2 by the Witness and the witnessed, 3 That accursed are the men of the trench 4 Fire supplied (abundantly) with fuel: 5 When they were sitting at its edge. 6 to watch what they were doing to the believers, 7 And they persecuted them for naught save that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Praiseworthy 8 Whose kingdom spreads over the heavens and the earth. God is witness over everything. 9 Those who persecute (or draw into temptation) the Believers, men and women, and do not turn in repentance, will have the Penalty of Hell: They will have the Penalty of the Burning Fire. 10 For those who believe and do righteous deeds, will be Gardens; beneath which rivers flow: That is the great Salvation, (the fulfilment of all desires), 11 Indeed the seizure of your Lord is very severe. 12 it is He who begins and repeats [His creation], 13 And He is the Forgiving, and the Loving. 14 Owner of the Throne, the Exalted. 15 Executor of His own will. 16 Have you not heard the story of the hosts 17 Of the Fir'awn and the Thamud? 18 But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial, 19 And Allah is after them, has them surrounded. 20 Aye! it is a Recitation glorious, 21 Inscribed in a tablet preserved. 22
