# Translation Ayah
1 By the sun and his brightness, وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا
2 And the moon when she followeth him, وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا
3 And the day when it revealeth him, وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا
4 And the night when it enshroudeth him, وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا
5 And the heaven and Him Who built it, وَالسَّمَاء وَمَا بَنَاهَا
6 And the earth and Him Who spread it, وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَاهَا
7 And a soul and Him Who perfected it وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا
8 And inspired it (with conscience of) what is wrong for it and (what is) right for it. فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا
9 He is indeed successful who causeth it to grow, قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا
10 And he is indeed a failure who stunteth it. وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَا
11 (The tribe of) Thamud denied (the truth) in their rebellious pride, كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَاهَا
12 When the basest of them broke forth إِذِ انبَعَثَ أَشْقَاهَا
13 And the messenger of Allah said: It is the she-camel of Allah, so let her drink! فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ نَاقَةَ اللَّهِ وَسُقْيَاهَا
14 But they denied him, and they hamstrung her, so Allah doomed them for their sin and rased (their dwellings). فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنبِهِمْ فَسَوَّاهَا
15 He dreadeth not the sequel (of events). وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَاهَا
