The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);- 1 And what will make you to know what At-Tariq (night-comer) is? 2 - The piercing Star! 3 There is not a soul that does not have a guardian over it. 4 So let man observe from what he was created. 5 He was created of a gushing fluid, 6 That issued from between the loins and ribs. 7 Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)! 8 The Day that (all) things secret will be tested, 9 Then man will have no power or any helper. 10 By the Firmament which returns (in its round), 11 And the earth splitting (with plants); 12 That this (Qur'an) is a decisive word 13 and is not to be taken lightly. 14 Surely they will make a scheme, 15 And I (too) will make a scheme. 16 So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal you gently with them for a while. 17
