The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the sky and the night comer - 1 And what will make you to know what At-Tariq (night-comer) is? 2 The star of piercing brightness; 3 Over every soul there is a watcher. 4 So let man consider from what he is created. 5 He is created of water pouring forth, 6 emanating from between the loins and the ribs. 7 Verily, (Allah) is Able to bring him back (to life)! 8 On the day when all secrets will be made public, 9 Then will (man) have no power, nor any helper. 10 By heaven of the returning rain, 11 And [by] the earth which cracks open, 12 this (Qur'an) is surely a decisive Word, 13 It is not a thing for amusement. 14 Verily, they are but plotting a plot (against you O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)). 15 and so am I: 16 Give respite to the disbelievers and leave them alone for a while. 17
