The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By the heavens and al-tariq. 1 - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is! 2 (It is) the star of piercing brightness; 3 Over every soul there is a watcher. 4 So let man observe from what he was created. 5 He is created from a gushing fluid 6 Coming from between the back and the ribs. 7 Most surely He is able to return him (to life). 8 upon the day when the secrets are tried, 9 [man] will have no power, and no helper. 10 I swear by the raingiving heavens, 11 and by the earth ever bursting with verdure, 12 surely it is a decisive word; 13 it is not a jest. 14 Indeed, they are planning a plan, 15 But I too am devising a plan. 16 So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile. 17
