The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By the heaven and the Morning Star 1 And what shall make thee know that which the night-comer is? 2 (It is) the Star of piercing brightness;- 3 [for] no human being has ever been left unguarded. 4 So man must consider from what he has been created. 5 He is created from a gushing fluid 6 That issued from between the loins and ribs. 7 Verily He is Able to restore him, 8 On the day when hidden things shall be made manifest, 9 Then will he have no might nor any helper. 10 So I call to witness the rain-producing sky, 11 and the earth, bursting forth with plants! 12 It is surely a decisive utterance; 13 And it is not a frivolity. 14 They are devising a guile, 15 And I secretly plan. 16 So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal you gently with them for a while. 17
