وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا ١
By the sun and its brightness,
وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا ٢
and the moon as it follows it,
وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا ٣
and the day as it unveils it,
وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا ٤
and the night as it conceals it!
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا ٥
And by heaven and ˹the One˺ Who built it,
وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا ٦
and the earth and ˹the One˺ Who spread it!
وَنَفْسٍۢ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا ٧
And by the soul and ˹the One˺ Who fashioned it,
فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا ٨
then with ˹the knowledge of˺ right and wrong inspired it!
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا ٩
Successful indeed is the one who purifies their soul,
وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا ١٠
and doomed is the one who corrupts it!
