The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the heaven and the Morning Star 1 And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?- 2 It is the star shining brightly. 3 There is no soul which is not guarded (by the two angels who record all of its deeds). 4 Let man consider what he was made of: 5 Created from a gushing fluid. 6 That issueth from between the loins and the breast-bones. 7 Surely He (the Creator) has the power to bring him back (to life). 8 On the Day when secrets are disclosed, 9 Then will he have no might nor any helper. 10 By the sky which returns [rain] 11 by earth splitting with verdure, 12 this is indeed a Decisive Word, 13 And is not a matter of amusement. 14 Verily they are plotting a plot. 15 but I shall bring all their scheming to nought. 16 So respite thou the infidels - respite them gently, 17
