Surah The Sun [Ash-Shams] in English

By the sun and Duhaha.

By the moon as it Talaha.

By the day as it Jallaha.

By the night as it Yaghshaha.

By the heaven and Ma Banaha.

By the earth and Ma Tahhaha.

By Nafs, and Ma Sawwaha (Who apportioned it).

Then He showed it its Fujur and its Taqwa.

Indeed he succeeds who purifies it.

And indeed he fails who Dassaha.

Thamud denied through their trans- gression.

When their most wicked went forth.

But the Messenger of Allah said to them: \"Be cautious! That is the she-camel of Allah! (Do not harm it) and (bar it not from having) its drink!\"

Then they denied him and they killed it. So their Lord destroyed them because of their sin, Fasawwaha!
