The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);- 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 that it has over it a protector. 4 So let man consider of what he was created. 5 He was created from ejaculated water 6 That issued from between the loins and ribs. 7 God has all power to resurrect him. 8 A day when the secrets will be examined. 9 and he shall have no strength, no helper. 10 By the sky (having rain clouds) which gives rain, again and again. 11 And the earth which splits (with the growth of trees and plants), 12 It is surely a decisive utterance; 13 And it is not amusement. 14 Verily, they are but plotting a plot (against you O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)). 15 and I too am devising a guile. 16 So respite thou the infidels - respite them gently, 17
