The Sun (Al-Shams)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
By the sun and its brightness 1 By the Moon as she follows him; 2 By the Day as it shows up (the Sun's) glory; 3 And by oath of the night when it hides it 4 And the heaven and Him Who made it, 5 And [by] the earth and He who spread it 6 By the soul and Him Who propertioned it, 7 and inspired it to lewdness and godfearing! 8 Truly he succeeds that purifies it, 9 And indeed failed is the one who covered it in sin. 10 The tribe of Thamud denied with rebellion. 11 Behold, the most wicked man among them was deputed (for impiety). 12 So Allah's apostle said to them (Leave alone) Allah's she-camel, and (give) her (to) drink. 13 But they denied him, and they hamstrung her, so Allah doomed them for their sin and rased (their dwellings). 14 He does not fear the result (of their destruction). 15
