Asad, Surah 85: The Constellations (Al-Burooj)

Surahs

[1] CONSIDER the sky full of great constellations,

[2] and [then bethink thyself of] the promised Day,

[3] and [of] Him who witnesses [all], and [of] that unto which witness is borne [by Him]!

[4] THEY DESTROY [but] themselves, they who would ready a pit

[5] of fire fiercely burning [for all who have attained to faith]!

[6] Lo! [With glee do] they contemplate that [fire],

[7] fully conscious of what they are doing to the believers,

[8] whom they hate for no other reason than that they believe in God, the Almighty, the One to whom all praise is due,

[9] [and] to whom the dominion of the heavens and the earth belongs. But God is witness unto everything!

[10] Verily, as for those who persecute believing men and believing women, and thereafter do not repent, hell's suffering awaits them: yea, suffering through fire awaits them!

[11] [But,] verily, they who attain to faith and do righteous deeds shall [in the life to come] have gardens through which running waters flow - that triumph most great!

[12] VERILY, thy Sustainer's grip is exceedingly strong!

[13] Behold, it is He who creates [man] in the first instance, and He [it is who] will bring him forth anew.

[14] And He alone is truly-forgiving, all-embracing in His love,

[15] in sublime almightiness enthroned,

[16] a sovereign doer of whatever He wills.

[17] HAS IT ever come within thy ken, the story of the [sinful] hosts

[18] of Pharaoh, and of [the tribe of] Thamud?

[19] And yet, they who are bent on denying the truth persist in giving it the lie:

[20] but all the while God encompasses them [with His knowledge and might] without their being aware of it.

[21] Nay, but this [divine writ which they reject] is a discourse sublime,

[22] upon an imperishable tablet [inscribed].
