The Sun (Al-Shams)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
And by the sun and its brightness; 1 And the moon when it follows the sun, 2 By the day when it glorifieth it. 3 And by oath of the night when it hides it 4 by the sky and how He built it 5 and by the earth and by Him Who stretched it out; 6 And by oath of the soul and by oath of Him Who made it proper. 7 and inspired it with knowledge of evil and piety, 8 He is indeed successful who causeth it to grow, 9 and truly lost is he who buries it [in darkness]. 10 Thamood belied in their pride 11 when the most wicked man among them rose up. 12 although God's apostle had told them, "It is a she-camel belonging to God, so let her drink [and do her no harm]!" 13 But they denied him, and they hamstrung her, so Allah doomed them for their sin and rased (their dwellings). 14 and He fears not the issue thereof. 15
