الطارق
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ
By the sky and the night comer
Waalssamai waalttariqi
وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ
And what can make you know what is the night comer
Wama adraka ma alttariqu
ٱلنَّجۡمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ
It is the piercing star
Alnnajmu alththaqibu
إِن كُلُّ نَفۡسٖ لَّمَّا عَلَيۡهَا حَافِظٞ
There is no soul but that it has over it a protector
In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun
فَلۡيَنظُرِ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
So let man observe from what he was created
Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa
خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٖ دَافِقٖ
He was created from a fluid, ejected
Khuliqa min main dafiqin
يَخۡرُجُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِ ٱلصُّلۡبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ
Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs
Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi
إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجۡعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٞ
Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able
Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun
يَوۡمَ تُبۡلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ
The Day when secrets will be put on trial
Yawma tubla alssarairu
فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٖ وَلَا نَاصِرٖ
Then man will have no power or any helper
Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجۡعِ
By the sky which returns [rain]
Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi
وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدۡعِ
And [by] the earth which cracks open
Waalardi thati alssadAAi
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوۡلٞ فَصۡلٞ
Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement
Innahu laqawlun faslun
وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلۡهَزۡلِ
And it is not amusement
Wama huwa bialhazli
إِنَّهُمۡ يَكِيدُونَ كَيۡدٗا
Indeed, they are planning a plan
Innahum yakeedoona kaydan
وَأَكِيدُ كَيۡدٗا
But I am planning a plan
Waakeedu kaydan
فَمَهِّلِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ أَمۡهِلۡهُمۡ رُوَيۡدَۢا
So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile
Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
