الطارق

[1]CONSIDER the heavens and that which comes in the night!

[2]And what could make thee conceive what it is that comes in the night?

[3]It is the star that pierces through [life's] darkness:

[4][for] no human being has ever been left unguarded.

[5]LET MAN, then, observe out of what he has been created:

[6]he has been created out of a seminal fluid

[7]issuing from between the loins [of man] and the pelvic arch [of woman].

[8]Now, verily, He [who thus creates man in the first instance] is well able to bring him back [to life]

[9]on the Day when all secrets will be laid bare,

[10]and [man] will have neither strength nor helper!
