Indeed, he had thought he would never return [to Allah].

But yes! Indeed, his Lord was ever of him, Seeing.

So I swear by the twilight glow

And [by] the night and what it envelops

And [by] the moon when it becomes full

[That] you will surely experience state after state.

So what is [the matter] with them [that] they do not believe,

And when the Qur'an is recited to them, they do not prostrate [to Allah]?

But those who have disbelieved deny,

And Allah is most knowing of what they keep within themselves.

So give them tidings of a painful punishment,

Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds. For them is a reward uninterrupted.

By the sky containing great stars

And [by] the promised Day

And [by] the witness and what is witnessed,

Cursed were the companions of the trench

[Containing] the fire full of fuel,

When they were sitting near it

And they, to what they were doing against the believers, were witnesses.

And they resented them not except because they believed in Allah, the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy,

To whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. And Allah, over all things, is Witness.

Indeed, those who have tortured the believing men and believing women and then have not repented will have the punishment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the Burning Fire.

Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds will have gardens beneath which rivers flow. That is the great attainment.
