The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
By the heaven, and At-Tariq (the night-comer, i.e. the bright star); 1 - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is! 2 The star of piercing brightness; 3 For every soul there is a watcher. 4 So let man consider from what he is created. 5 He was created from ejaculated water 6 That issueth from between the loins and the breast-bones. 7 Most surely He is able to return him (to life). 8 On a Day whereon secrets shall be out. 9 when he will be helpless, with no supporter. 10 By the sky (having rain clouds) which gives rain, again and again. 11 and by the earth bursting with vegetation; 12 this is indeed a Decisive Word, 13 And no trifle. 14 Surely they will make a scheme, 15 And I (too) am planning a plan. 16 Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile). 17
