The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By the heaven and the night-comer 1 - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is! 2 - The piercing Star! 3 There is no living being but there is a protector over it. 4 So man must consider from what he has been created. 5 He was created of a gushing fluid, 6 issuing between the loins and the breast-bones. 7 Surely He is able to bring him back 8 The day all secrets are examined 9 Then man will have no power or any helper. 10 I swear by the raingiving heavens, 11 by earth splitting with verdure, 12 Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil): 13 And is not a matter of amusement. 14 They are cunningly devising, 15 and I too am devising a guile. 16 So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile. 17
