The Quran

By the sun and its brightness

and the moon as it follows it

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

Thamûd rejected ˹the truth˺ out of arrogance

when the most wicked of them was roused ˹to kill the she-camel˺

But the messenger of Allah warned them, “˹Do not disturb˺ Allah’s camel and her ˹turn to˺ drink!”

Still they defied him and slaughtered her. So their Lord crushed them for their crime, levelling all to the ground

He has no fear of consequences
