By the sky containing great stars

And [by] the promised Day

وَشَاهِدٍ وَمَشْهُودٍ

وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ

wa-hum 'ala ma yaf'alun bil-mu'minin shuhud

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

وَمَا نَقَمُوا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا أَن يُؤْمِنُوا بِاللَّهِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَمِيدِ

wa-ma naqamu minhum illa an yu'minu billah al-'aziz al-hamid

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

inna alladhina fatanu al-mu'minin wal-mu'minat thumma lam yatubu fa-lahum 'adhab jahannam wa-lahum 'adhab al-hariq

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.

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٌ تَجْرِي مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الْفَوْزُ الْكَبِيرُ

But they who disbelieve are in [persistent] denial,

وَاللَّهُ مِن وَرَائِهِم مُّحِيطٌ
