In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

I swear by the daybreak, (1)

And the ten nights, (2)

And the even and the odd, (3)

And the night when it departs (4)

Truly in that there is an oath for those who possess understanding (5)

Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with Ad, (6)

(The people of) Aram, possessors of lofty buildings, (7)

The like of which were not created in the (other) cities; (8)

And (with) Samood, who hewed out the rocks in the valley, (9)

And (with) Firon, the lord of hosts, (10)
