The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the sky and the night comer - 1 And what will make you know what the comer by night is? 2 It is the star that shines with a piercing brightness -- 3 There is not a soul but over it is a keeper. 4 So let man look - from what is he created. 5 He was created from spurting fluid, 6 which comes out of the loins and ribs. 7 Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able. 8 on the Day when all secrets will be laid bare, 9 Then he shall have no power nor any helper. 10 By the sky with its returning rain, 11 And the earth which opens up (with verdure), 12 Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement, 13 and is no idle tale. 14 Indeed the disbelievers carry out their evil schemes. 15 But I too am devising a plan. 16 so bear with those who deny the truth, and let them be for a little while. 17
