سُوْرَةُ الطَّارِقِ
At-Taariq · The Morning Star
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ ﴿١﴾
86:1By the sky and the night comer -
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ ﴿٢﴾
86:2And what can make you know what is the night comer?
ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ ﴿٣﴾
86:3It is the piercing star -
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ ﴿٤﴾
86:4There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.
فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ﴿٥﴾
86:5So let man observe from what he was created.
خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍ دَافِقٍ ﴿٦﴾
86:6He was created from a fluid, ejected,
يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ ﴿٧﴾
86:7Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.
إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌ ﴿٨﴾
86:8Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ ﴿٩﴾
86:9The Day when secrets will be put on trial,
فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ ﴿١٠﴾
86:10Then man will have no power or any helper.
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ ﴿١١﴾
86:11By the sky which returns [rain]
وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ ﴿١٢﴾
86:12And [by] the earth which cracks open,
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ ﴿١٣﴾
86:13Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,
وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ ﴿١٤﴾
86:14And it is not amusement.
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ﴿١٥﴾
86:15Indeed, they are planning a plan,
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا ﴿١٦﴾
86:16But I am planning a plan.
فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا ﴿١٧﴾
86:17So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.
