The Sun (Al-Shams)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the sun and its heat and brightness, 1 And by the moon as it follows it (the sun); 2 and by the day as it reveals its glory 3 And by oath of the night when it hides it 4 by the heavens and that (Power) which established them, 5 And [by] the earth and He who spread it 6 By the soul, and That which shaped it 7 and imbued it with (the consciousness of) its evil and its piety: 8 those who purify their souls will certainly have everlasting happiness 9 and truly lost is he who buries it [in darkness]. 10 Thamood belied in their pride 11 when the most wicked of them broke forth, 12 Then Allah's Messenger warned them: “Hands off the she-camel and her drink!” 13 But they called him a liar and hamstrung her. So God obliterated them for their crime, and (destroyed) all of them alike. 14 And He feared not the consequence thereof 15
