The Holy Qur'an - Mhsakir - Sure 091

   In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

"91.1":    I swear by the sun and its brilliance,

"91.2":    And the moon when it follows the sun,

"91.3":    And the day when it shows it,

"91.4":    And the night when it draws a veil over it,

"91.5":     And the heaven and Him Who made it,

"91.6":    And the earth and Him Who extended it,

"91.7":    And the soul and Him Who made it perfect,

"91.8":    Then He inspired it to understand what is right and wrong for it;

"91.9":    He will indeed be successful who purifies it,

"91.10":    And he will indeed fail who corrupts it.

"91.11":    Samood gave the lie (to the truth) in their inordinacy,

"91.12":    When the most unfortunate of them broke forth with

"91.13":     So Allah's apostle said to them (Leave alone) Allah's she-camel, and (give) her (to) drink.

"91.14":    But they called him a liar and slaughtered her, therefore their Lord crushed them for their sin and leveled them (with the ground).

"91.15":    And He fears not its consequence.
