I swear by the heaven and the comer by night;
Waalssamai waalttariqi
Chapter 86, 17 verses
I swear by the heaven and the comer by night;
Waalssamai waalttariqi
And what will make you know what the comer by night is?
Wama adraka ma alttariqu
The star of piercing brightness;
Alnnajmu alththaqibu
There is not a soul but over it is a keeper.
In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun
So let man consider of what he is created:
Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa
He is created of water pouring forth,
Khuliqa min main dafiqin
Coming from between the back and the ribs.
Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi
Most surely He is able to return him (to life).
Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun
On the day when hidden things shall be made manifest,
Yawma tubla alssarairu
He shall have neither strength nor helper.
Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin
I swear by the raingiving heavens,
Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi
And the earth splitting (with plants);
Waalardi thati alssadAAi
Most surely it is a decisive word,
Innahu laqawlun faslun
And it is no joke.
Wama huwa bialhazli
Surely they will make a scheme,
Innahum yakeedoona kaydan
And I (too) will make a scheme.
Waakeedu kaydan
So grant the unbelievers a respite: let them alone for a while.
Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
