The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
By the heaven, and At-Tariq (the night-comer, i.e. the bright star); 1 - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is! 2 (It is) the Star of piercing brightness;- 3 No soul is there but hath over it a watcher. 4 Now let man but think from what he is created! 5 He was created from ejaculated water 6 Issuing from (the pelvis) between the backbone and the ribs. 7 Verily, (Allah) is Able to bring him back (to life)! 8 on the Day when consciences are examined, 9 He will have no strength or helper. 10 By the heaven which giveth the returning rain, 11 And the earth which splits (with the growth of trees and plants), 12 Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement, 13 and is not to be taken lightly. 14 They are devising guile, 15 and I am cunningly devising. 16 Let, then, the deniers of the truth have their will: let them have their will for a little while. 17
