I CALL TO witness the star of the pleiades when it has dipped

By oath of the beloved shining star Mohammed (peace and blessings be upon him), when he returned from the Ascent.

By the Star when it plunges,

CONSIDER this unfolding [of God’s message], as it comes down from on high!

By the star when it setteth.

By the star when it goes down, (or vanishes).

By the star as it goes down.

By the star as it goes down.

By the star, as it falls.

By the star, as it falls.

By the stars when they fade away!

By the star when it sets:

By the star when it goes down.

By the Star when it setteth,

By the star when it sets:

By the star when it plunges,

By the star when it descends,

By the declining star,

I swear by the star when it goes down.

Waalnnajmi itha hawa

wal-najmi idhā hawā

By the setting star,

By the Star when it goes down,-
