The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the heaven and the night-comer 1 And what can make you know what is the night comer? 2 - The piercing Star! 3 No human soul but hath a guardian over it. 4 Let man consider what he was made of: 5 he was created of gushing water 6 Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs. 7 Now, verily, He [who thus creates man in the first instance] is well able to bring him back [to life] 8 The day all secrets are examined 9 Then he shall have no power nor any helper. 10 By oath of the sky from which comes down the rain. 11 And the earth splitting (with plants); 12 It is surely a decisive utterance; 13 and is not to be taken lightly. 14 They are hatching up a plot, 15 And I (too) am planning a plan. 16 Give respite to the disbelievers and leave them alone for a while. 17
