Surat Ath-Thariq and Translation

(The Night Star)

Surah Number  : 86

The Number of Verses : 17

أَعُوْذُ بِاللهِ مِنَ الشَّـيْطٰنِ الرَّجِيْمِ
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

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.
