By the Sun and his (glorious) splendour;

91:2

By the Moon as she follows him;

91:3

91:5

By the Firmament and its (wonderful) structure;

91:6

By the Earth and its (wide) expanse:

91:7

By the Soul, and the proportion and order given to it;

91:8

91:10

91:15

And for Him is no fear of its consequences.
