The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the heavens and al-tariq. 1 And what can make you know what is the night comer? 2 (It is a nightly radiant star). 3 There is no soul but has a protector over it. 4 So let man consider of what he is created: 5 He is created from a gushing fluid 6 That is issued from between the backs and the ribs. 7 Surely He is able to bring him back 8 On a Day whereon secrets shall be out. 9 Then man will have no power or any helper. 10 By the heaven which giveth the returning rain, 11 and the replenishing earth, 12 the Quran is the final word, 13 It is no pleasantry. 14 They are hatching up a plot, 15 but I shall bring all their scheming to nought. 16 So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal thou gently with them for a while. 17
