Translation by Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran
Info 1 91:1
By the sun and its brightness,
2 91:2
and the moon as it follows it,1
3 91:3
and the day as it unveils it,
4 91:4
and the night as it conceals it!
5 91:5
And by heaven and ˹the One˺ Who built it,
6 91:6
and the earth and ˹the One˺ Who spread it!
7 91:7
And by the soul and ˹the One˺ Who fashioned it,
8 91:8
then with ˹the knowledge of˺ right and wrong inspired it!
9 91:9
Successful indeed is the one who purifies their soul,
10 91:10
and doomed is the one who corrupts it!
11 91:11
Thamûd rejected ˹the truth˺ out of arrogance,
12 91:12
when the most wicked of them was roused ˹to kill the she-camel˺.
13 91:13
But the messenger of Allah warned them, “˹Do not disturb˺ Allah’s camel and her ˹turn to˺ drink!”
14 91:14
Still they defied him and slaughtered her. So their Lord crushed them for their crime, levelling all to the ground.1
15 91:15
He has no fear of consequences.
