Translation of the Holy Koran by Shakir

---

Sura 91 Aya 1 to 15
	1		[ 91: 1 ] I swear by the sun and its brilliance,
	2		[ 91: 2 ] And the moon when it follows the sun,
	3		[ 91: 3 ] And the day when it shows it,
	4		[ 91: 4 ] And the night when it draws a veil over it,
	5		[ 91: 5 ] And the heaven and Him Who made it,
	6		[ 91: 6 ] And the earth and Him Who extended it,
	7		[ 91: 7 ] And the soul and Him Who made it perfect,
	8		[ 91: 8 ] Then He inspired it to understand what is right and wrong for it;
	9		[ 91: 9 ] He will indeed be successful who purifies it,
	10		[ 91: 10 ] And he will indeed fail who corrupts it.
	11		[ 91: 11 ] Samood gave the lie ( to the truth ) in their inordinacy,
	12		[ 91: 12 ] When the most unfortunate of them broke forth with
	13		[ 91: 13 ] So Allah's messenger said to them ( Leave alone ) Allah's she-camel, and ( give ) her ( to ) drink.
	14		[ 91: 14 ] But they called him a liar and slaughtered her, therefore their Lord crushed them for their sin and levelled them ( with the ground ).
	15		[ 91: 15 ] And He fears not its consequence.
