By the sky and the night comer - 1 - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is! 2 The piercing star! 3 There is no human being but has a protector over him (or her) (i.e. angels incharge of each human being guarding him, writing his good and bad deeds, etc.) 4 So let man consider of what he was created; 5 Created from a gushing fluid. 6 issuing from between the loins [of man] and the pelvic arch [of woman]. 7 God has certainly power to bring him back (from the dead). 8 upon the day when the secrets are tried, 9 Then will (man) have no power, nor any helper. 10 By heaven of the returning rain, 11 and by the earth ever bursting with verdure, 12 the Quran is the final word, 13 it is not a jest. 14 They are devising guile, 15 But I am planning a plan. 16 Therefore give them some respite – give them some time. 17
