The Comet (Al-Taareq)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
I CALL TO witness the heavens and the night Star -- 1 And what could make thee conceive what it is that comes in the night? 2 It is the piercing star. 3 There is no soul but has a protector over it. 4 So let man consider from what he is created. 5 He was created from ejaculated water 6 which comes out of the loins and ribs. 7 God has all power to resurrect him. 8 on the Day when all secrets will be laid bare, 9 and [man] will have neither strength nor helper! 10 By the Firmament which returns (in its round), 11 And the earth which splitteth (with the growth of trees and plants) 12 Verily! This (the Quran) is the Word that separates (the truth from falsehood, and commands strict legal laws for mankind to cut the roots of evil). 13 It is not a thing for amusement. 14 They are hatching up a plot, 15 And I plot a plot (against them). 16 Therefore give them some respite – give them some time. 17
