البُرُوجِ

Translation By
Dr. Mustafa Khattab
85:1
By the sky
containing
the constellations
(1)

وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الْبُرُوجِ

By the sky full of constellations,
85:2
And the Day
Promised
(2)

وَالْيَوْمِ الْمَوْعُودِ

and the promised Day ˹of Judgment˺,
85:3
And (the) witness
and what is witnessed
(3)

وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ

and the witness and what is witnessed!1
85:4
Destroyed were
(the) companions
(of) the pit
(4)

قُتِلَ أَصْحَابُ الْأُخْدُودِ

Condemned are the makers of the ditch—
85:5
(Of) the fire
full
(of) the fuel
(5)

النَّارِ ذَاتِ الْوَقُودِ

the fire ˹pit˺, filled with fuel—
85:6
When
they
by it
(were) sitting
(6)

إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ

when they sat around it,
85:7
And they
over
what
they were doing
to the believers
witnesses
(7)

وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ

watching what they had ˹ordered to be˺ done to the believers,
85:8
And not
they resented
[of] them
except
that
they believed
in Allah
the All-Mighty
the Praiseworthy
(8)

وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ

who they resented for no reason other than belief in Allah—the Almighty, the Praiseworthy—
85:9
The One Who
for Him
(is) the dominion
(of) the heavens
ﭽﭾand the earth
ﭿand Allah
on
every
thing
(is) a Witness
(9)

الَّذِي لَهُ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ ۚ وَاللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ شَهِيدٌ

˹the One˺ to Whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and earth. And Allah is a Witness over all things.
85:10
Indeed
those who
persecuted
the believing men
and the believing women
then
not
they repented
then for them
(is the) punishment
(of) Hell
and for them
(is the) punishment
(of) the Burning Fire
(10)

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَتَنُوا الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَتُوبُوا فَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ جَهَنَّمَ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابُ الْحَرِيقِ

Those who persecute the believing men and women and then do not repent will certainly suffer the punishment of Hell and the torment of burning.
