The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the heaven adorned with big stars. 1 by the promised day, 2 And the witness and the witnessed, 3 Cursed were the companions of the trench 4 by a burning fire 5 When they sat by it, 6 And they themselves are witnesses to what they were doing to the Muslims! 7 They had no other reason for hating them except that they believed in God the mighty, worthy of praise, 8 Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is a Witness of all things. 9 Surely (as for) those who persecute the believing men and the believing women, then do not repent, they shall have the chastisement of hell, and they shall have the chastisement of burning. 10 Surely (as for) those who believe and do good, they shall have gardens beneath which rivers flow, that is the great achievement. 11 The grip of your Lord is severe indeed! 12 Indeed it is He Who initiates and redoes. 13 And He is the Forgiving, and the Loving. 14 Lord of the Throne, the Glorious, 15 Effecter of what He intends. 16 Have you not heard about the stories of the armies 17 Of the Fir'awn and the Thamud? 18 Nay! The disbelievers (persisted) in denying (Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and his Message of Islamic Monotheism). 19 God encompasses them from all sides. 20 In fact it (what they deny) is the Noble Qur’an. 21 In a guarded tablet. 22
