The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By the heaven and the Morning Star 1 And have you understood what the nightly arriver is? 2 - The piercing Star! 3 For every soul there is a watcher. 4 So let man look - from what is he created. 5 He was created from ejaculated water 6 issuing from between the loins [of man] and the pelvic arch [of woman]. 7 Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)! 8 On a Day whereon secrets shall be out. 9 [man] will have no power, and no helper. 10 Consider the heavens, ever-revolving, 11 And by oath of the earth which flourishes with it. 12 this (Qur'an) is surely a decisive Word, 13 and it is certainly not a jest. 14 Verily they are plotting a plot. 15 But I am planning a plan. 16 So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal you gently with them for a while. 17
