The Sun (Chapter 91, Holy Koran)

I ask for refuge to Allah from Satan the exiled evildoer.
In the name of Allah the Kind and the Merciful Giver.

Swear upon the Sun and the sunshine
And the moon when it follows the Sun in one line
And the day when it shows it
And the night when it hides it
And the sky and Him Who made it
And the earth and Him Who spread it
And the soul and the Maker of its perfection
He inspires it to understand what is right and wrong
They will surely be successful who purify it
And they will certainly fail who corrupt it.

The Samood tribe gave the lie in their inordinacy
When the most unfortunate of them started conspiracy
Then Allah's Apostle said to them, it's Allah's she -camel
So give her something to drink
But they called him a liar and slaughtered her -
Their Lord crushed them for this sin
And leveled them with the ground hence
And He is not afraid of its consequence.
