 QURAN Ch.89+91 By the daybreak. And ten nights. And theeven and the odd. And the nighgt as it recedes. Is there in this an oath for a rational person? 5 Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with Aad? Erum of the pillars The like of which was never created in the land And Thamood--those who carved the rocks in the valley And Pharaoh of the Stakes 10 Those who committed excesses in the lands And spread much corruption therein So your Lord poured down upon them a scourge of punishment Your Lord is on the lookout As for man, whenever his Lord tests him, and honors him, and prospers him, he says, "My Lord has honored me." 15 But whenever He tests him, and resticts his livelihood for him, he says, "My Lord has insulted me." Not at all. But you do not honor the orphan. And you do not urge the feeding of the poor. And you devour inheritance with all greed. And you love wealth with immense love. 20 No-when the earth is leveled, pounded, and crushed. And your Lord comes, with the angels, row after row. And on that Day, Hell is brought forward. On that Day, man will remeber, but how will remembrance avail him? He will say, "If only I had forwarded for my life." On that Day, none will punish as He punishes. 25 And none will shackle as He shackles. But as for you, O tranquil soul. Return to your Lord, pleased and accepted. Enter among My servants. Enter My Paradise. 30 By the sun and its radiance. And the moon as it follows it. And the day as it reveals it. And the night as it conceals it. And the sky and He who built it. 35 And the earth and He who spread it. And the soul and He who proportioned it. And inspired it with its wickedness and its righteousness. Successful is he who purifies it. Failing is he who corrupts it. 40 Thamood denied in its pride. When it followed its most wicked. The messenger of God said to them, "This is the she-camel of God, so let her drink." But they called him a liar, and hamstrung her. So their Lord crushed them for their sin, and leveled it. And He does not fear its sequel. 45
