Chapter 86, 17 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the heaven and the Morning Star
Waalssamai waalttariqi
- Ah, what will tell thee what the Morning Star is!
Wama adraka ma alttariqu
- The piercing Star!
Alnnajmu alththaqibu
No human soul but hath a guardian over it.
In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun
So let man consider from what he is created.
Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa
He is created from a gushing fluid
Khuliqa min main dafiqin
That issued from between the loins and ribs.
Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi
Lo! He verily is Able to return him (unto life)
Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun
On the day when hidden thoughts shall be searched out.
Yawma tubla alssarairu
Then will he have no might nor any helper.
Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin
By the heaven which giveth the returning rain,
Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi
And the earth which splitteth (with the growth of trees and plants)
Waalardi thati alssadAAi
Lo! this (Qur'an) is a conclusive word,
Innahu laqawlun faslun
It is no pleasantry.
Wama huwa bialhazli
Lo! they plot a plot (against thee, O Muhammad)
Innahum yakeedoona kaydan
And I plot a plot (against them).
Waakeedu kaydan
So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal thou gently with them for a while.
Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
