بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ﴿٠﴾
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْبُرُوجِ ﴿١﴾
I swear by the mansions of the stars,
وَٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْمَوْعُودِ ﴿٢﴾
And the promised day,
وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ ﴿٣﴾
And the bearer of witness and those against whom the witness is borne.
قُتِلَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْأُخْدُودِ ﴿٤﴾
Cursed be the makers of the pit,
ٱلنَّارِ ذَاتِ ٱلْوَقُودِ ﴿٥﴾
Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel,
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ ﴿٦﴾
When they sat by it,
وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ ﴿٧﴾
And they were witnesses of what they did with the believers.
وَمَا نَقَمُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّآ أَن يُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْحَمِيدِ ﴿٨﴾
And they did not take vengeance on them for aught except that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Praised,
ٱلَّذِى لَهُۥ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ ﴿٩﴾
Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is a Witness of all things.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا۟ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلْمُؤْمِنَٰتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا۟ فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ ٱلْحَرِيقِ ﴿١٠﴾
Surely (as for) those who persecute the believing men and the believing women, then do not repent, they shall have the chastisement of hell, and they shall have the chastisement of burning.
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّٰتٌ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا ٱلْأَنْهَٰرُ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلْفَوْزُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ ﴿١١﴾
Surely (as for) those who believe and do good, they shall have gardens beneath which rivers flow, that is the great achievement.
إِنَّ بَطْشَ رَبِّكَ لَشَدِيدٌ ﴿١٢﴾
Surely the might of your Lord is great.
إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ ﴿١٣﴾
Surely He it is Who originates and reproduces,
وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلْوَدُودُ ﴿١٤﴾
And He is the Forgiving, the Loving,
ذُو ٱلْعَرْشِ ٱلْمَجِيدُ ﴿١٥﴾
Lord of the Arsh, the Glorious,
فَعَّالٌ لِّمَا يُرِيدُ ﴿١٦﴾
The great doer of what He will.
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ٱلْجُنُودِ ﴿١٧﴾
Has not there come to you the story of the hosts,
فِرْعَوْنَ وَثَمُودَ ﴿١٨﴾
Of Firon and Samood?
بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ فِى تَكْذِيبٍ ﴿١٩﴾
Nay! those who disbelieve are in (the act of) giving the lie to the truth.
وَٱللَّهُ مِن وَرَآئِهِم مُّحِيطٌۢ ﴿٢٠﴾
And Allah encompasses them on every side.
بَلْ هُوَ قُرْءَانٌ مَّجِيدٌ ﴿٢١﴾
Nay! it is a glorious Quran,
فِى لَوْحٍ مَّحْفُوظٍۭ ﴿٢٢﴾
In a guarded tablet.
