By the sun and its brightness, and the moon as it follows it, and the day as it unveils it, and the night as it conceals it ! And by heaven and ˹the One˺ Who built it,and the earth and ˹the One˺ Who spread it !And by the soul and ˹the One˺ Who fashioned it, then with ˹the knowledge of˺ right and wrong inspired it !
Successful indeed is the one who purifies their soul, and doomed is the one who corrupts it !

وَٱلشَّمْسِ وَضُحَىٰهَا ‏وَٱلْقَمَرِ إِذَا تَلَىٰهَا ‎
‏وَٱلنَّهَارِ إِذَا جَلَّىٰهَا ‏وَٱلَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰهَا ‎
‏وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَمَا بَنَىٰهَا ‎وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَىٰهَا ‎

وَنَفْسٍۢ وَمَا سَوَّىٰهَا ‎
‏فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَىٰهَا ‎
‏قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّىٰهَا ‎
‏وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّىٰهَا
Surah Ash-Shams(الشمس)

There are 15 Ayat in this Surah.
