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