Verses 15 — Makki; Revealed at Mecca — Sections 1
In the name of
Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
1.
By
the Sun and his (glorious) splendour;
2.
By
the Moon as she follows him;
3.
By
the Day as it shows up (the Sun's) glory;
4.
By
the Night as it conceals it;
5.
By
the Firmament and its (wonderful) structure;
6.
By
the Earth and its (wide) expanse:
7.
By
the Soul, and the proportion and order given to it;
8.
And
its enlightenment as to its wrong and its right;—
9.
Truly
he succeeds that purifies it,
10.
And
he fails that corrupts it!
11.
The
Thamud (people) rejected (their prophet) through their inordinate wrong-doing,
12.
Behold,
the most wicked man among them was deputed (for impiety).
13.
But
the Messenger of Allah said to them: "It is a She-camel of Allah. And (bar
her not from) having her drink!"
14.
Then
they rejected him (as a false prophet), and they hamstrung her. So their Lord,
on account of their crime, obliterated their traces and made them equal (in
destruction, high and low)!
15.
And
for Him is no fear of its consequences.
The
Holy Qur'an
Translated
by Abdullah Yusuf Ali
