| 091.001. By the Sun and his (glorious) splendour; |
091.001. By the sun and his brightness, |
| 091.002. By the Moon as she follows him; |
091.002. And the moon when she followeth him, |
| 091.003. By the Day as it shows up (the Sun's) glory; |
091.003. And the day when it revealeth him, |
| 091.004. By the Night as it conceals it; |
091.004. And the night when it enshroudeth him, |
| 091.005. By the Firmament and its (wonderful) structure; |
091.005. And the heaven and Him Who built it, |
| 091.006. By the Earth and its (wide) expanse: |
091.006. And the earth and Him Who spread it, |
| 091.007. By the Soul, and the proportion and order given to it; |
091.007. And a soul and Him Who perfected it |
| 091.008. And its enlightenment as to its wrong and its right;- |
091.008. And inspired it (with conscience of) what is wrong for it and (what is) right for it. |
| 091.009. Truly he succeeds that purifies it, |
091.009. He is indeed successful who causeth it to grow, |
| 091.010. And he fails that corrupts it! |
091.010. And he is indeed a failure who stunteth it. |
