مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ إِذَا ٱلشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ ۝١

When the sunlight is rolled up.

وَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ ٱنكَدَرَتْ ۝٢

And when the stars fall down.

وَإِذَا ٱلْجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتْ ۝۳

And when the mountains are driven.

وَإِذَا ٱلْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْ ۝٤

And when milch camels roam abandoned.

وَإِذَا ٱلْوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ ۝٥

And when wild animals are herded together.

وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتْ ۝٦

And when the seas are set afire.

وَإِذَا ٱلنُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ ۝۷

And when the souls are paired.

وَإِذَا ٱلْمَوْءُۥدَةُ سُئِلَتْ ۝۸

And when the girl-child who was buried alive is asked.

بِأَىِّ ذَنۢبٍۢ قُتِلَتْ ۝۹

Upon what sin was she killed for.

وَإِذَا ٱلصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتْ ۝١۰

And when the Records of Account are laid bare.

وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ كُشِطَتْ ۝١١

And when the heaven is torn away.

وَإِذَا ٱلْجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتْ ۝١٢

And when hell is further enflamed.

وَإِذَا ٱلْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ ۝١۳

And when Paradise is brought near.

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌۭ مَّآ أَحْضَرَتْ ۝١٤

Every soul will then come know what it has brought.

فَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلْخُنَّسِ ۝١٥

So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.)

ٱلْجَوَارِ ٱلْكُنَّسِ ۝١٦

Who move straight and stop.

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ ۝١۷

And by oath of the night when it turns back.

وَٱلصُّبْحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ ۝١۸

And by oath of the morning when it takes birth.

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍۢ كَرِيمٍۢ ۝١۹

This is indeed the recitation of an honoured Noble Messenger. (Angel Jibreel – peace and blessings be upon him.)

ذِى قُوَّةٍ عِندَ ذِى ٱلْعَرْشِ مَكِينٍۢ ۝٢۰

The mighty, the honoured in the presence of the Lord of the Throne.

مُّطَاعٍۢ ثَمَّ أَمِينٍۢ ۝٢١

The one who is obeyed, and trustworthy. (Other angels obey angel Jibreel).

وَمَا صَاحِبُكُم بِمَجْنُونٍۢ ۝٢٢

And your companion is not insane.

وَلَقَدْ رَءَاهُ بِٱلْأُفُقِ ٱلْمُبِينِ ۝٢۳

And indeed he saw him on the clear horizon. (Prophet Mohammed saw Angel Jibreel in his true shape – peace and blessings be upon them).

وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى ٱلْغَيْبِ بِضَنِينٍۢ ۝٢٤

And this Prophet is not miserly upon the hidden. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.)

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَٰنٍۢ رَّجِيمٍۢ ۝٢٥

And the Qur’an is not the recitation of Satan the outcast.

فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ ۝٢٦

So where are you going?

إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌۭ لِّلْعَٰلَمِينَ ۝٢۷

That is but an advice to the entire creation!

لِمَن شَآءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ ۝٢۸

For the one among you who wishes to become upright.

وَمَا تَشَآءُونَ إِلَّآ أَن يَشَآءَ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ۝٢۹

And what will you wish, except if Allah wills – the Lord of the Creation.
