86. At-Taariq

By the sky and the night comer -

And what can make you know what is the night comer?

It is the piercing star -

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

So let man observe from what he was created.

He was created from a fluid, ejected,

Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

Then man will have no power or any helper.

By the sky which returns [rain]

And [by] the earth which cracks open,

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

And it is not amusement.

Indeed, they are planning a plan,

But I am planning a plan.

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.
