مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا ۝١

By the sun and its heat and brightness,

وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا ۝٢

and by the moon as it follows it;

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا ۝۳

and by the day as it displays the sun's glory,

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا ۝٤

and by the night as it envelopes the sun;

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا ۝٥

and by the sky and by Him Who made it;

وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا ۝٦

and by the earth and by Him Who stretched it out;

وَنَفْسٍۢ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا ۝۷

and by the soul and by Him Who perfectly proportioned it,

فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا ۝۸

and imbued it with (the consciousness of) its evil and its piety:

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا ۝۹

He who purifies it will prosper,

وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا ۝١۰

and he who suppresses it will be ruined.

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَىٰهَآ ۝١١

In their presumptuous insolence the Thamud called the Truth a lie

إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشْقَىٰهَا ۝١٢

when their arch-criminal rose up in rage.

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَسُقْيَٰهَا ۝١۳

Then Allah's Messenger warned them: “Hands off the she-camel and her drink!”

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسَوَّىٰهَا ۝١٤

But they rejected his statement as a lie and hamstrung the she-camel. For that crime their Lord rumbled down upon them, utterly razing them to the ground.

وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَٰهَا ۝١٥

He has no fear of its sequel.
