The Sun — Dr Kamal Omar Translation – Parallel Quran

1 The Sun

وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَاهَا

The sun acts as a witness and its brightness

Waalshshamsi waduhaha

وَالْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَاهَا

and the moon when it received its due (i.e., the light) from it

Waalqamari itha talaha

وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّاهَا

and the day-time when it made it (i.e., the sun) brightly appearing

Waalnnahari itha jallaha

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَاهَا

and the night when it conceals it (i.e., the sun)

Waallayli itha yaghshaha

وَالسَّمَاءِ وَمَا بَنَاهَا

and the heaven, and how (beauitiful and vast) He built it

Waalssama-i wama banaha

وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَاهَا

and the earth, and how (evenly) He spread it

Waal-ardi wama tahaha

وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا

and Nafs and how He made it proportionate

Wanafsin wama sawwaha

فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا

then He provided her (i.e., to the Nafs, an inherent ability in conscience, mind or heart to point out) evils unto her and piety unto her

Faalhamaha fujooraha wataqwaha

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا

Indeed he has succeeded whoever purified her (the Nafs)

Qad aflaha man zakkaha

وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَا

And indeed he lost who corrupted her (i.e., the Nafs)

Waqad khaba man dassaha

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ بِطَغْوَاهَا

Samud (people) denied through the arrogant, rebellious behaviour of her (i.e., of the Nafs)

Kaththabat thamoodu bitaghwaha

إِذِ انبَعَثَ أَشْقَاهَا

when one of the most wicked of that (habitation) came forward (in bad intention)

Ithi inbaAAatha ashqaha

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ نَاقَةَ اللَّهِ وَسُقْيَاهَا

So Rusulullah (Messenger of Allah) said to them: “(behave properly with the) she-camel of Allah and (bear and tolerate) her (nature) as a female who drinks more water (than other animals and beings)

Faqala lahum rasoolu Allahi naqata Allahi wasuqyaha

فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمْدَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَبُّهُم بِذَنبِهِمْ فَسَوَّاهَا

Then they belied him; so they hamstrung her (mahead of state her incapacitated to approach the site of water-supply). So their Nourisher-Sustainer brought over them severe whipping because of their crime, so He levelled these (people and their city in a complete destruction)

Fakaththaboohu faAAaqarooha fadamdama AAalayhim rabbuhum bithanbihim fasawwaha

وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَاهَا

And (Allah) fears not about its consequences

Wala yakhafu AAuqbaha
