At-Tariq
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the heaven and the Morning Star
(1)
- Ah, what will tell thee what the
Morning Star is! (2)
- The piercing Star! (3)
No human soul but hath a guardian
over it. (4)
So let man consider from what he
is created. (5)
He is created from a gushing fluid
(6)
That issued from between the loins
and ribs. (7)
Lo! He verily is Able to return
him (unto life) (8)
On the day when hidden thoughts
shall be searched out. (9)
Then will he have no might nor
any helper. (10)
By the heaven which giveth the
returning rain, (11)
And the earth which splitteth (with
the growth of trees and plants) (12)
Lo! this (Qur'an) is a conclusive
word, (13)
It is no pleasantry. (14)
Lo! they plot a plot (against
thee, O Muhammad) (15)
And I plot a plot (against them).
(16)
So give a respite to the
disbelievers. Deal thou gently with them for a while.
