English - Chapter 85 - Al-Buruj

By the heaven holding the big stars

And by the witnesses and that which is being witnessed

Cursed be the people of the ditch

who lit the fire fed with fuel

and they sat by it (fire)

to watch what they were doing to the believers

And they took revenge on them for no other reason except that they believed in Allah, the All-Mighty, the Praise-worthy

to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth! And Allah is witness over everything

Surely, those who persecute the believing men and believing women and don’t repent (to Allah), then they will receive the punishment of hell and they will have the punishment of the burning fire

Surely, those who believe and do righteous deeds, they will have gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise). That is the great success

Surely, (O Muhammad) the grip (punishment) of your Lord is very severe

Surely, it is He Who originates (created everything) and will repeat it (on the Day of Resurrection)

Allah is Forgiving, the Loving (to the pious)

the Owner of the Throne, the Glorious

and (He) does whatever He intends (or wills)

Has the story reached you of the hosts

of Pharaoh and Thamud

Nay! The disbelievers (persist) in denying (the truth)

and Allah has encompassed them from all around

Nay! This is a Glorious Qur’an

(inscribed) in the preserved tablet (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz)
