Stars

Indeed, your Lord is Allāh, who created the heavens and earth in six days and then established Himself above the Throne.¹ He covers the night with the day, [another night] chasing it rapidly; and [He created] the sun, the moon, and the stars, subjected by His command. Unquestionably, His is the creation and the command; blessed is Allāh, Lord of the worlds.

And We have placed within the heaven great stars and have beautified it for the observers.

And He has subjected for you the night and day and the sun and moon, and the stars are subjected by His command. Indeed in that are signs for a people who reason.

And landmarks. And by the stars they are [also] guided.¹

Do you not see [i.e., know] that to Allāh prostrates whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth and the sun, the moon, the stars, the mountains, the trees, the moving creatures and many of the people? But upon many the punishment has been justified.¹ And he whom Allāh humiliates - for him there is no bestower of honor. Indeed, Allāh does what He wills.

Blessed is He who has placed in the sky great stars and placed therein a [burning] lamp and luminous moon.

Except one who snatches [some words] by theft, but they are pursued by a burning flame, piercing [in brightness].

Indeed, We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment of stars

And as protection against every rebellious devil

[So] they may not listen to the exalted assembly [of angels] and are pelted from every side,¹

And he cast a look at the stars

Repelled; and for them is a constant punishment,

And He completed them as seven heavens within two days and inspired [i.e., made known] in each heaven its command. And We adorned the nearest heaven with lamps [i.e., stars, for beauty] and as protection.¹ That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

By the heaven containing pathways,¹

By the star when it descends,

And that it is He who is the Lord of Sirius¹

Then I swear by the setting of the stars,¹

And We have certainly beautified the nearest heaven with lamps [i.e., stars] and have made [from] them what is thrown at the devils¹ and have prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze.

So when the stars are obliterated

By those [angels] who extract with violence¹

And [by] those who remove with ease¹

And [by] those who glide [as if] swimming¹

And those who race each other in a race¹

So I swear by the retreating stars -

And when the stars fall, dispersing,

And when the stars fall, scattering,

By the sky and the knocker

And what can make you know what is the knocker?

It is the piercing star¹.

There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.
