Chapter 86, 17 verses
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ
Waalssamai waalttariqi
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ
By the sky and the night comer -
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ
Wama adraka ma alttariqu
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ
And what can make you know what is the night comer?
ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ
Alnnajmu alththaqibu
النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ
It is the piercing star -
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ
In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ
There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.
فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
So let man observe from what he was created.
خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍ دَافِقٍ
Khuliqa min main dafiqin
خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ
He was created from a fluid, ejected,
يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ
Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi
يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ
Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.
إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌ
Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun
إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ
Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ
Yawma tubla alssarairu
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ
The Day when secrets will be put on trial,
فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ
Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin
فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ
Then man will have no power or any helper.
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ
Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ
By the sky which returns [rain]
وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ
Waalardi thati alssadAAi
وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ
And [by] the earth which cracks open,
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ
Innahu laqawlun faslun
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ
Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,
وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ
Wama huwa bialhazli
وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ
And it is not amusement.
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا
Innahum yakeedoona kaydan
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا
Indeed, they are planning a plan,
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
Waakeedu kaydan
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
But I am planning a plan.
فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا
Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا
So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.
