مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا ۝١

By the sun and its noon-time brightness,

وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا ۝٢

by the moon when it follows the sun,

وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا ۝۳

by the day when it brightens the earth,

وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا ۝٤

by the night when it covers the earth with darkness,

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا ۝٥

by the heavens and that (Power) which established them,

وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا ۝٦

by the earth and that (Power) which spread it out

وَنَفْسٍۢ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا ۝۷

and by the soul and that (Power) which designed it

فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا ۝۸

and inspired it with knowledge of evil and piety,

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا ۝۹

those who purify their souls will certainly have everlasting happiness

وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا ۝١۰

and those who corrupt their souls will certainly be deprived (of happiness).

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَىٰهَآ ۝١١

The people of Thamud rejected (the truth) as a result of their rebelliousness

إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشْقَىٰهَا ۝١٢

when the most corrupt of them incited them (to commit evil).

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَسُقْيَٰهَا ۝١۳

The Messenger of God told them, "This is a she-camel, belonging to God. Do not deprive her of her share of water".

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمْ فَسَوَّىٰهَا ۝١٤

However, they rejected him and slew her. So their Lord completely destroyed them and their city for their sins.

وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَٰهَا ۝١٥

God is not afraid of the result of what He had decreed.
