আল বুরূজ (বিশাল বিশাল নক্ষত্র)

1 By the sky containing great stars

1 I swear by the mansions of the stars,

2 And [by] the promised Day

2 And the promised day,

3 And [by] the witness and what is witnessed,

3 And the bearer of witness and those against whom the witness is borne.

4 Cursed were the companions of the trench

4 Cursed be the makers of the pit,

5 [Containing] the fire full of fuel,

5 Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel,

6 When they were sitting near it

6 When they sat by it,

7 And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.

7 And they were witnesses of what they did with the believers.

8 And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,

8 And they did not take vengeance on them for aught except that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Praised,

9 To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness.

9 Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; and Allah is a Witness of all things.

10 Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.

10 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.

11 Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment.

11 Surely (as for) those who believe and do good, they shall have gardens beneath which rivers flow, that is the great achievement.

12 Indeed, the vengeance of your Lord is severe.

12 Surely the might of your Lord is great.

13 Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats.

13 Surely He it is Who originates and reproduces,

14 And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate,

14 And He is the Forgiving, the Loving,

15 Honorable Owner of the Throne,

15 Lord of the Arsh, the Glorious,

16 Effecter of what He intends.

16 The great doer of what He will.

17 Has there reached you the story of the soldiers -

17 Has not there come to you the story of the hosts,

18 [Those of] Pharaoh and Thamud?

18 Of Firon and Samood?

19 But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial,

19 Nay! those who disbelieve are in (the act of) giving the lie to the truth.

20 While Allah encompasses them from behind.

20 And Allah encompasses them on every side.

21 But this is an honored Qur'an

21 Nay! it is a glorious Quran,

22 [Inscribed] in a Preserved Slate.

22 In a guarded tablet.
