The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the heaven adorned with big stars. 1 By the Promised Day! 2 and by the witness and what is witnessed: 3 That accursed are the men of the trench 4 The people of the fuelled blazing fire. 5 When they sat by it, 6 fully conscious of what they are doing to the believers, 7 and their revenge on them was only because they believed in Allah, the Almighty, the Praised, 8 To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness. 9 Those who persecuted the believing men and women and never repented, there is for them the punishment of Gehenna (Hell), and for them the punishment of the burning. 10 Surely for those who believe and do the right are gardens with rivers running by. That is the greatest success. 11 Lo! the punishment of thy Lord is stern. 12 It is He who originates and repeats. 13 and He is the Ever Forgiving, the Most Loving 14 in sublime almightiness enthroned, 15 The great doer of what He will. 16 Hath there come unto thee the story of the hosts 17 Of Firon and Samood? 18 But those who disbelieve are engaged in denial. 19 and God is behind them, encompassing. 20 In fact it (what they deny) is the Noble Qur’an. 21 Inscribed in a tablet preserved. 22
