The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the sky containing great stars 1 And by the Promised Day. 2 And [by] the witness and what is witnessed, 3 Cursed be the makers of the pit, 4 Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel, 5 They sat by it 6 And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses. 7 and their revenge on them was only because they believed in Allah, the Almighty, the Praised, 8 Whose kingdom spreads over the heavens and the earth. God is witness over 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 As for the righteously striving believers, they will live in Paradise wherein streams flow. This is the greatest triumph. 11 Indeed the seizure of your Lord is very severe. 12 Surely He it is Who originates and reproduces, 13 and He is the Ever Forgiving, the Most Loving 14 in sublime almightiness enthroned, 15 the Executor of what He wills. 16 Has there reached you the story of the soldiers - 17 Pharaoh and Thamood? 18 Yet the unbelievers still belie, 19 But God surrounds them from all sides. 20 Nay, but it is a glorious Koran, 21 inscribed on a well-guarded Tablet. 22
