The Comet (Al-Taareq)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the heaven, and the night-visitor, 1 And have you understood what the nightly arriver is? 2 (It is) the Star of piercing brightness;- 3 There is not a soul that does not have a guardian over it. 4 LET MAN, then, observe out of what he has been created: 5 He is created from a gushing fluid 6 That is issued from between the backs and the ribs. 7 Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)! 8 On the day when hidden thoughts shall be searched out. 9 he will have no power, nor anyone to help him. 10 By the sky with its returning rain, 11 And the earth splitting (with plants); 12 this (Qur'an) is surely a decisive Word, 13 And it is not a frivolity. 14 As for them, they are but plotting a scheme, 15 but I too plan against them. 16 so bear with those who deny the truth, and let them be for a little while. 17
