The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the heavens with constellations, 1 And by oath of the Promised Day. 2 and by the witness and what is witnessed: 3 Woe to the makers of the pit (of fire), 4 Full of fire fed by faggots, 5 while they themselves sat around it 6 And they were witnesses of what they did with the believers. 7 They took revenge on them only because they believed in the All-mighty, the Al-laudable, 8 and the One to whom belongs the heavens and the earth. God is the Witness of all things. 9 Verily, those who put into trial the believing men and believing women (by torturing them and burning them), and then do not turn in repentance, (to Allah), will have the torment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the burning Fire. 10 Indeed those who believed and did good deeds – for them are Gardens beneath which rivers flow; this is the great success. 11 Surely the might of your Lord is great. 12 Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats. 13 He is the forgiving and the loving, 14 Lord of the Throne, the All-glorious, 15 and the Most Effective in His decision. 16 Have you not heard the story of the hosts 17 Of Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and Thamud? 18 The unbelievers are indeed engaged in denying it, calling it a lie, 19 And Allah is after them, has them surrounded. 20 Nay! it is a glorious Quran, 21 written on a preserved Tablet. 22
