Revealed before the Hijrah. This chapter has 5 verses.
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
1. Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn,
2. From the mischief of created things;
3. From the mischief of Darkness as it overspreads;
4. From the mischief of those who blow on knots;
5. And from the mischief of the envious one as he practices envy.

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
1. By the Dawn
2. By the ten Nights;

7. Of the (city of) Iram, with lofty pillars,
8. The like of which were not produced in (all) the land?

10. And with Pharaoh, lord of stakes?
