The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
I CALL TO witness the heavens and the night Star -- 1 what do you know what the night-visitor is? 2 - The piercing Star! 3 That over each soul there is a guardian. 4 Let man consider what he was made of: 5 He is created from a gushing fluid 6 Issuing from (the pelvis) between the backbone and the ribs. 7 God has certainly power to bring him back (from the dead). 8 On the day when hidden thoughts shall be searched out. 9 he shall have no power, and no helper. 10 I swear by the raingiving heavens, 11 And by oath of the earth which flourishes with it. 12 surely it is a decisive word; 13 And no trifle. 14 They (disbelievers) plot every evil plan, 15 But I am planning a plan. 16 Let, then, the deniers of the truth have their will: let them have their will for a little while. 17
