The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the heaven adorned with big stars. 1 By the Promised Day! 2 And the bearer of witness and those against whom the witness is borne. 3 Cursed be the makers of the pit, 4 Full of fire fed by faggots, 5 while they sat around it, 6 and they were witnesses of what they did to the believers 7 They took revenge on them only because they believed in the All-mighty, the Al-laudable, 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 believing women, and then do not repent, will surely suffer the punishment of Hell, and the torment of burning. 10 Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment. 11 Surely thy Lord's assault is terrible. 12 Surely He it is Who originates and reproduces, 13 He is the All-forgiving, the Most Loving One, 14 Owner of the throne, the Glorious 15 Always doing whatever He wills. 16 Hath there come unto thee the story of the hosts 17 Of Pharaoh and (the tribe of) Thamud? 18 Yet the infidels persist in denial. 19 although Allah surrounds them. 20 Nay, but it is a glorious Qur'an. 21 In a guarded tablet. 22
