He spoke to the Sun and brought the dead to life

; Let them not deny that, for [by Him] the moon was split.

He made the Jinn manifest through His rebuke,

And made the peasant (Dihqan) hear a word, until he fell prostrate in the dust."

He brought forth the she-camels for them from a rock,

And springs that gush with water that overflowed.

He addressed the Serpent during his sermon,

And the guiding star in a murky, dark night.

He addressed the dead in [their graves],

And they answered Him while the people stood in throngs.

The wolf spoke to Him secretly regarding a terrifying matter, And the Jinn perished; no life remains for them to boast of.

The Leveler of the Gate [of Khaybar] with His right hand, Though the people sought refuge, the warnings availed them naught.

And the returning [of the sun] for the 'Mim' (Muhammad) contains a lesson,

After sayings that had passed for the one being tested.
