Asad, Surah 91: The Sun (Ash-Shams)

Surahs

[1] CONSIDER the sun and its radiant brightness,

[2] and the moon as it reflects the sun!

[3] Consider the day as it reveals the world,

[4] and the night as it veils it darkly!

[5] Consider the sky and its wondrous make,

[6] and the earth and all its expanse!

[7] Consider the human self, and how it is formed in accordance with what it is meant to be,

[8] and how it is imbued with moral failings as well as with consciousness of God!

[9] To a happy state shall indeed attain he who causes this [self] to grow in purity,

[10] and truly lost is he who buries it [in darkness].

[11] TO [THIS] TRUTH gave the lie, in their overweening arrogance, [the tribe of] Thamud,

[12] when that most hapless wretch from among them rushed forward [to commit his evil deed],

[13] although God's apostle had told them, "It is a she-camel belonging to God, so let her drink [and do her no harm]!"

[14] But they gave him the lie, and cruelly slaughtered her - whereupon their Sustainer visited them with utter destruction for this their sin, destroying them all alike:

[15] for none [of them] had any fear of what might befall them.
