আত তারিক (রাত্রে আত্মপ্রকাশকারী)

1 By the Sky and the Night - Visitant (therein); -

1 Waalssamai waalttariqi

2 And what will explain to thee what the Night - Visitant is? -

2 Wama adraka ma alttariqu

3 (It is) the Star of piercing brightness; -

3 Alnnajmu alththaqibu

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

4 In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun

5 Now let man but think from what he is created!

5 Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa

6 He is created from a drop emitted -

6 Khuliqa min main dafiqin

7 Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:

7 Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi

8 Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!

8 Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun

9 The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,

9 Yawma tubla alssarairu

10 (Man) will have no power, and no helper.

10 Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin

11 By the Firmament which returns (in its round),

11 Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi

12 And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation), -

12 Waalardi thati alssadAAi

13 Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):

13 Innahu laqawlun faslun

14 It is not a thing for amusement.

14 Wama huwa bialhazli

15 As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,

15 Innahum yakeedoona kaydan

16 And I am planning a scheme.

16 Waakeedu kaydan

17 Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).

17 Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
