By the Sky and the Night - Visitant (therein); -
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ
Chapter 86, 17 verses
By the Sky and the Night - Visitant (therein); -
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ
And what will explain to thee what the Night - Visitant is? -
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ
(It is) the Star of piercing brightness; -
ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ
There is no soul but has a protector over it.
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ
Now let man but think from what he is created!
فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
He is created from a drop emitted -
خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍ دَافِقٍ
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ
Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!
إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌ
The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ
(Man) will have no power, and no helper.
فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ
By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ
And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation), -
وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ
Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ
It is not a thing for amusement.
وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ
As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا
And I am planning a scheme.
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).
فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا
