Surah “The Mansions of the Stars, The Constellations”

By the heaven full of stars

And the promised day

And the bearer of witness and that to which witness is borne

Destruction overtake the companions of the trench! -

The fire fed with fuel -

When they sit by it

And they are witnesses of what they do with the believers

And they punished them for naught but that they believed in Allah, the Mighty, the Praised

Whose is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. And Allah is Witness of all things

Those who persecute believing men and believing women, then repent not, theirs is the chastisement of hell, and theirs the chastisement of burning

Those who believe and do good, theirs are Gardens wherein flow rivers. That is the great achievement

Surely the grip of thy Lord is severe

Surely He it is Who creates first and reproduces

And He is the Forgiving, the Loving

Lord of the Throne of Power, the Glorious

Doer of what He intends

Has not there come to thee the story of the hosts

Of Pharaoh and Thamud

Nay, those who disbelieve give the lie -

And Allah encompasses them on all sides

Nay, it is a glorious Qur’an

In a guarded tablet
