The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By oath of the heaven which contains the constellations. 1 and by the promised Day, 2 And the bearer of witness and those against whom the witness is borne. 3 Woe to the makers of the pit (of fire), 4 Full of fire fed by faggots, 5 when they were seated over it 6 And they themselves are witnesses to what they were doing to the Muslims! 7 They had nothing against them, except that they believed in Allah, the All-Mighty, Worthy of all Praise! 8 [and] to whom the dominion of the heavens and the earth belongs. But God is witness unto everything! 9 Surely those who tormented the believing men and the believing women and then did not repent, theirs shall be the chastisement of Hell, and theirs shall be the chastisement of burning. 10 (But) for those who believe and do good works, for them there are Gardens underneath which rivers flow that is the Great Victory! 11 The grip of your Lord is indeed severe, 12 It is He who originates and repeats. 13 and He is the Forgiving and Loving One. 14 Honorable Owner of the Throne, 15 The great doer of what He will. 16 Has the story of the hordes 17 Pharaoh and Thamood? 18 But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial, 19 Allah encompasses them all from behind. 20 Nay; but this is a glorious Qur'an, 21 inscribed on a well-guarded Tablet. 22
