91. "The Sun "
 
     
1.
By the sun and his brightness,  
2.
And the moon when she follows him,
 
3.
And the day when it reveals us,
 
4.
And the night when it enshrouds us,
 
5.
And the heaven and Him who built it,
 
6.
And the earth and Him who spread it,
 
7.
And a soul and Him who perfected it
 
8.
And inspired it with conscience of what is right and what is wrong.
 
9.
A person is indeed successful who causes it to grow,
 
10.
And is indeed a failure who stunts it.
 
11.
Some tribes of people denied the truth in their rebellious pride,
 
12.
When the basest of them broke forth
 
13.
And the messenger of Allah said: It is the she-camel of Allah, so let her drink!
 
14.
But they denied him, and they hamstrung her, so dooming themselves by their ignorance and so their dwellings were ultimately destroyed.
 
15.
The Lord warns us, lest such events happen again.
