The Sun (Al-Shams)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the sun and its heat and brightness, 1 and by the moon when she follows him, 2 and by the day as it displays the sun's glory, 3 by the night, when it envelops it! 4 by the sky and how He built it 5 And the earth and Him Who extended it, 6 And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it 7 and inspired it with knowledge of evil and piety, 8 He who nourishes it will surely be successful, 9 and he who suppresses it will be ruined. 10 The Thamud tribe rejected the truth because of their arrogance, 11 When the most wicked man among them went forth (to kill the she-camel). 12 The Messenger of God told them, "This is a she-camel, belonging to God. Do not deprive her of her share of water". 13 But they denied him, and they hamstrung her, so Allah doomed them for their sin and rased (their dwellings). 14 He has no fear of its sequel. 15
