وَٱلشَّمۡسِ

وَضُحَىٰهَا

١

By the sun and its brightness,

and the moon as it follows it,¹

and the day as it unveils it,

and the night as it conceals it!

And by heaven and ˹the One˺ Who built it,

and the earth and ˹the One˺ Who spread it!

And by the soul and ˹the One˺ Who fashioned it,

then with ˹the knowledge of˺ right and wrong inspired it!

Successful indeed is the one who purifies their soul,

and doomed is the one who corrupts it!
