The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
CONSIDER the heavens and that which comes in the night! 1 - Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is! 2 - The piercing Star! 3 For every soul there is a watcher. 4 So let man consider from what he is created. 5 He is created from a water dripping, 6 Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs. 7 Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able. 8 On the Day when secrets are disclosed, 9 [man] will have no power, and no helper. 10 By the heaven with its recurring cycle of rain, 11 by earth splitting with verdure, 12 the Quran is the final word, 13 And it is not a thing for amusement. 14 Indeed, they are planning a plan, 15 and so am I: 16 So leave the unbelievers to themselves; respite them awhile. 17
