The Galaxies (Al-Burooj)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the heaven with its impregnable castles; 1 And by oath of the Promised Day. 2 By the witness and the witnessed! 3 The companions of the pit were killed 4 [Containing] the fire full of fuel, 5 while they themselves sat around it 6 and they were witnesses of what they did to the believers 7 whom they hated for no other reason than that they believed in God, the Almighty, the Praiseworthy, 8 Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is Witness to all things. 9 Lo! they who persecute believing men and believing women and repent not, theirs verily will be the doom of hell, and theirs the doom 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 Indeed the seizure of your Lord is very severe. 12 It is He who originates and repeats. 13 He is the All-forgiving, the Most Loving One, 14 Lord of the Arsh, the Glorious, 15 Doer of what He will. 16 Have you not heard the story of the hosts 17 Of Firon and Samood? 18 Nay! The disbelievers (persisted) in denying (Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and his Message of Islamic Monotheism). 19 Allah encompasses them all from behind. 20 Aye! it is a Recitation glorious, 21 in a guarded tablet. 22
