The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the heaven and the Morning Star 1 Do you know what al-tariq is? 2 It is the shining star -- 3 There is not a soul that does not have a guardian over it. 4 So let man consider of what he is created: 5 He has been created from an ejected drop of fluid 6 issuing between the loins and the breast-bones. 7 Verily He is Able to restore him, 8 On the Day when secrets are disclosed, 9 So man will neither have any strength nor any aide. 10 By the heavens, ever-revolving, 11 And [by] the earth which cracks open, 12 this (Qur'an) is surely a decisive Word, 13 And it is not a thing for amusement. 14 They are cunningly devising, 15 And I am planning a scheme. 16 So respite thou the infidels - respite them gently, 17
