By the sun and its brightness
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والشمس وضحاها
Waalshshamsi waduhaha
وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا
And [by] the moon when it follows it
والقمر إذا تلاها
Waalqamari itha talaha
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا
And [by] the day when it displays it
والنهار إذا جلاها
Waalnnahari itha jallaha
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا
And [by] the night when it covers it
والليل إذا يغشاها
Waallayli itha yaghshaha
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا
And [by] the sky and He who constructed it
والسماء وما بناها
Waalssamai wama banaha
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا
And [by] the earth and He who spread it
والأرض وما طحاها
Waalardi wama tahaha
وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا
And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it
ونفس وما سواها
Wanafsin wama sawwaha
وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا
And inspired it [with discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness,
فألهمها فجورها وتقواها
Faalhamaha fujooraha wataqwaha
فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا
He has succeeded who purifies it,
قد أفلح من زكاها
Qad aflaha man zakkaha
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا
And he has failed who instills it [with corruption].
وقد خاب من دساها
Waqad khaba man dassaha
وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا
Thamud denied [their prophet] by reason of their transgression,
كذبت ثمود بطغواها
Kaththabat thamoodu bitaghwaha
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَىٰهَآ
When the most wretched of them was sent forth.
إذ انبعث أشقاها
Ithi inbaAAatha ashqaha
إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشْقَىٰهَا
And the messenger of Allah [Salih] said to them, "[Do not harm] the she - camel of Allah or [prevent her from] her drink."
فقال لهم رسول الله ناقة الله وسقياها
Faqala lahum rasoolu Allahi naqata Allahi wasuqyaha
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَسُقْيَٰهَا
But they denied him and hamstrung her. So their Lord brought down upon them destruction for their sin and made it equal [upon all of them].
فكذبوه فعقروها فدمدم عليهم ربهم بذنبهم فسواها
Fakaththaboohu faAAaqarooha fadamdama AAalayhim rabbuhum bithanbihim fasawwaha
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسَوَّىٰهَا
And He does not fear the consequence thereof.
ولا يخاف عقباها
Wala yakhafu AAuqbaha
وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَٰهَا
