الرحمن

The Most Merciful ^[1]

Taught the Qur'an, ^[2]

Created man, ^[3]

[And] taught him eloquence. ^[4]

The sun and the moon [move] by precise calculation, ^[5]

And the stars and trees prostrate. ^[6]

And the heaven He raised and imposed the balance ^[7]

That you not transgress within the balance. ^[8]

And establish weight in justice and do not make deficient the balance. ^[9]

And the earth He laid [out] for the creatures. ^[10]

Therein is fruit and palm trees having sheaths [of dates] ^[11]

And grain having husks and scented plants. ^[12]

So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny? ^[13]

He created man from clay like [that of] pottery. ^[14]

And He created the jinn from a smokeless flame of fire. ^[15]

So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny? ^[16]

[He is] Lord of the two sunrises and Lord of the two sunsets. ^[17]

So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny? ^[18]

He released the two seas, meeting [side by side]; ^[19]

Between them is a barrier [so] neither of them transgresses. ^[20]
