| 91:1 | | By the sun and his morning brightness, | | 91:2 | | by the moon as she follows him, | | 91:3 | | by the day, which reveals his splendour, | | 91:4 | | by the night, which veils him. | | 91:5 | | By the heaven and its construction, | | 91:6 | | by the earth and its spreading, | | 91:7 | | by the soul and its mouldin | | 91:8 | | and inspiration with knowledge of wickedness and righteousness. | | 91:9 | | Successful is the one who keeps it pure, | | 91:10 | | and ruined is the one who corrupts it. | | 91:11 | | In their overweening arrogance the people of Thamūd denied the truth, | | 91:12 | | when their most hapless wretch broke forth. | | 91:13 | | God's Messenger said to them: 'It is a she-camel belonging to God, so let her have her drink.' | | 91:14 | | But they rejected him, and cruelly slaughtered her. For this their sin their Lord let loose His scourge upon them, and razed their city to the ground. | | 91:15 | | He does not fear what may follow. |
