The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By the heavens and al-tariq. 1 And have you understood what the nightly arriver is? 2 (It is) the star of piercing brightness; 3 [for] no human being has been left unguarded. 4 Let man consider what he was made of: 5 He is created from a water gushing forth. 6 issuing between the loins and the breast-bones. 7 Verily He is Able to restore him, 8 upon the day when the secrets are tried, 9 Then he shall have no power nor any helper. 10 By the rotating heavens 11 And the earth which splitteth (with the growth of trees and plants) 12 Indeed the Qur’an is a decisive Word. 13 And no trifle. 14 They are planning a scheme, 15 But I am planning a plan. 16 So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile. 17
