The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the sky and the night comer - 1 What could let you know what the nightly comer is! 2 The very brightly shining star! 3 No human soul but hath a guardian over it. 4 Now let man but think from what he is created! 5 He is created from a water dripping, 6 which comes out of the loins and ribs. 7 Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able. 8 upon the day when the secrets are tried, 9 Then will (man) have no power, nor any helper. 10 By the heavens, ever-revolving, 11 and by the earth ever bursting with verdure, 12 It is surely a decisive utterance; 13 it is no merriment. 14 Verily they are plotting a plot. 15 And I (too) am planning a plan. 16 so bear with those who deny the truth, and let them be for a little while. 17
