The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
By the heavens with constellations, 1 by the promised day, 2 And by the Day witnessing and the Day witnessed, 3 The companions of the pit were killed 4 the fire with its fuel, 5 Behold! they sat over against the (fire), 6 And they witnessed what they were doing against the believers (i.e. burning them). 7 whom they hated for no other reason than that they believed in God, the Almighty, the Praiseworthy, 8 and the One to whom belongs the heavens and the earth. God is the Witness of all things. 9 Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire. 10 Lo! those who believe and do good works, theirs will be Gardens underneath which rivers flow. That is the Great Success. 11 Truly strong is the Grip (and Power) of thy Lord. 12 Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats. 13 and He is the All-forgiving, the All-loving, 14 Lord of the Throne, the All-glorious, 15 Performer of what He desires. 16 Has the story reached thee, of the forces- 17 Pharaoh and Thamood? 18 But those who disbelieve are engaged in denial. 19 But God surrounds them from all sides. 20 Nay, but it is a glorious Koran, 21 (Inscribed) in a Tablet Preserved! 22
