Part 30 / Chapter 91 | Chapter 91 / عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُوْنَ | |
By the sun and its brightness | 1 | وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا |
and the moon when it follows it (the sun) | 2 | وَالقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا |
and the day when it reveals it (the sun) | 3 | وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا |
and the night as it covers it | 4 | وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا |
and the heavens and Who built it | 5 | وَالسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَاهَا |
and the earth and Who spread it | 6 | وَالأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَاهَا |
and the soul and Who proportioned it | 7 | وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا |
then He inspired it about its wickedness and its righteousness | 8 | فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُوْرَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا |
indeed, he succeeds who purifies it | 9 | قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا |
and indeed, he fails who corrupts it | 10 | وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَا |
Thamud denied by their transgression | 11 | كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُوْدُ بِطَغْوَاهَآ |
when the wicked man among them went forth | 12 | إِذِ انْبَعَثَ أَشْقَاهَا |
the messenger of Allah (SWT) Salih (as) said to them | فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُوْلُ اللهِ | |
“that is the she-camel of Allah (SWT) and her drink” | 13 | نَاقَةَ اللهِ وَسُقْيَاهَا |
however, they denied him and killed it | فَكَذَّبُوْهُ فَعَقَرُوْهَا | |
so, their Lord destroyed them due to their sin | فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِم رَبُّهُمْ بِذَنْبِهِمْ | |
and made them equal in destruction | 14 | فَسَوَّاهَا |
and He fears not the consequences thereof | 15 | وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَاهَا |
