Surah al-Fajr

1.By the dawn

2.And [by] ten nights

3.And [by] the even [number] and the odd

4.And [by] the night when it passes,

5.Is there [not] in [all] that an oath [sufficient] for one of perception?

6.Have you not considered how your Lord dealt with 'Aad -

7.[With] Iram - who had lofty pillars,

8.The likes of whom had never been created in the land?

9.And [with] Thamud, who carved out the rocks in the valley?

10.And [with] Pharaoh, owner of the stakes? -
