الـطارق

1 By the sky and the night comer -

1 Waalssamai waalttariqi

2 And what can make you know what is the night comer?

2 Wama adraka ma alttariqu

3 It is the piercing star -

3 Alnnajmu alththaqibu

4 There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.

4 In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun

5 So let man observe from what he was created.

5 Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa

6 He was created from a fluid, ejected,

6 Khuliqa min main dafiqin

7 Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

7 Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi

8 Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

8 Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun

9 The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

9 Yawma tubla alssarairu

10 Then man will have no power or any helper.

10 Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin

11 By the sky which returns [rain]

11 Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi

12 And [by] the earth which cracks open,

12 Waalardi thati alssadAAi

13 Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

13 Innahu laqawlun faslun

14 And it is not amusement.

14 Wama huwa bialhazli

15 Indeed, they are planning a plan,

15 Innahum yakeedoona kaydan

16 But I am planning a plan.

16 Waakeedu kaydan

17 So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.

17 Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
