وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا

2 And by the moon when it follows it!

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا

3 And by the day when it reveals it!

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا

4 And by the night when it covers it!

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا

5 And by the sky and Him that1 built it!

وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا

6 And by the earth and Him that1 extended it!

وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا

7 And by a soul and Him that1 fashioned it,

فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا

8 And inspired it with its immorality and its prudent fear!1

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا

9 He has succeeded who increased it1 in purity,2

وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَىٰهَآ

إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشْقَىٰهَا

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّـهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّـهِ وَسُقْيَـٰهَا

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسَوَّىٰهَا

14 Then they denied him,1 and hamstrung2 her;3 and their Lord destroyed them for their transgression,4 and He levelled them.)

وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَـٰهَا
