The Sun (Al-Shams)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
And by the sun and its brightness; 1 and by the moon as it follows it, 2 By the day when it glorifieth it. 3 And by the night as it conceals it (the sun); 4 And the heaven and Him Who built it, 5 By the Earth and its (wide) expanse: 6 And the soul and Him Who made it perfect, 7 and imbued it with (the consciousness of) its evil and its piety: 8 prosperous is he who purified it, 9 and he who suppresses it will be ruined. 10 Thamood belied in their pride 11 Behold, the most wicked man among them was deputed (for impiety). 12 Then the apostle of Allah said unto them: beware of the she-camel of Allah and her drink. 13 But they belied him, and hamstrung her. So their Lord crushed them for their sin and leveled it (their village). 14 He has no fear of its sequel. 15
