Al-Burooj

Wassamaaa'i zaatil burooj

By the sky containing great stars

Wal yawmil maw'ood

And [by] the promised Day

Wa shaahidinw wa mashhood

And [by] the witness and what is witnessed,

Qutila as haabul ukhdood

Cursed were the companions of the trench

Annaari zaatil waqood

[Containing] the fire full of fuel,

Iz hum 'alaihaa qu'ood

When they were sitting near it

Wa hum 'alaa maa yaf'aloona bilmu 'mineena shuhood

And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.

Wa maa naqamoo minhum illaaa aiyu'minoo billaahil 'azeezil Hameed

And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,

Allazee lahoo mulkus samaawaati wal ard; wallaahu 'alaa kulli shai 'in Shaheed

To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness.

Innal lazeena fatanul mu'mineena wal mu'minaati summa lam yatooboo falahum 'azaabu Jahannama wa lahum 'azaabul hareeq

Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.

Innal lazeena aamanoo wa 'amilus saalihaati lahum Jannaatun tajree min tahtihal anhaar; zaalikal fawzul kabeer

Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment.

Inna batsha Rabbika lashadeed

Indeed, the vengeance of your Lord is severe.

Innahoo Huwa yubdi'u wa yu'eed

Indeed, it is He who originates [creation] and repeats.

Wa Huwal Ghafoorul Wadood

And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate,

Zul 'Arshil Majeed

Honorable Owner of the Throne,

Fa' 'aalul limaa yureed

Effecter of what He intends.

Hal ataaka hadeesul junood

Has there reached you the story of the soldiers -

Fir'awna wa Samood

[Those of] Pharaoh and Thamud?

Balil lazeena kafaroo fee takzeeb

But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial,

Wallaahu minw waraaa'ihim muheet

While Allah encompasses them from behind.

Bal huwa Quraanum Majeed

But this is an honored Qur'an

Fee Lawhim Mahfooz
