لَوۡ نَشَآءُ جَعَلۡنَٰهُ أُجَاجٗا فَلَوۡلَا تَشۡكُرُونَ

If We so will, We can make it bitter in taste. So why do you not offer gratitude?


أَفَرَءَيۡتُمُ ٱلنَّارَ ٱلَّتِي تُورُونَ

Now tell Me about the fire you kindle:


ءَأَنتُمۡ أَنشَأۡتُمۡ شَجَرَتَهَآ أَمۡ نَحۡنُ ٱلۡمُنشِـُٔونَ

Is it you who have originated its tree, 5 or are We the Originator?


نَحۡنُ جَعَلۡنَٰهَا تَذۡكِرَةٗ وَمَتَٰعٗا لِّلۡمُقۡوِينَ

We have made it a reminder (of Our infinite power, and of the fire of Hell) and a benefit for travelers in deserts.


فَسَبِّحۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ

So, proclaim purity of the name of your Lord, the Magnificent.


۞فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِمَوَٰقِعِ ٱلنُّجُومِ

So, I swear by the setting places of the stars,


وَإِنَّهُۥ لَقَسَمٞ لَّوۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ

-and indeed it is a great oath, if you are to appreciate-


إِنَّهُۥ لَقُرۡءَانٞ كَرِيمٞ

it is surely the Noble Qur’ān,


فِي كِتَٰبٖ مَّكۡنُونٖ

(recorded already) in a protected book (i.e. the Preserved Tablet)
