Quran Chapter 86: Surah At-Tariq (The Nightcommer) English Translation

(86:1) By the heaven, and the night-visitor, (86:2) what do you know what the night-visitor is? (86:3) It is the piercing star. (86:4) There is no living being but there is a protector over it. (86:5) So let man consider of what he was created. (86:6) He was created of a gushing fluid, (86:7) emanating from between the loins and the ribs. (86:8) Surely He (the Creator) has the power to bring him back (to life). (86:9) On the Day when man's deepest secrets shall be put to the test (86:10) he shall have no power, and no helper. (86:11) By the heaven with its recurring cycle of rain, (86:12) and by the earth ever bursting with verdure, (86:13) this (Qur'an) is surely a decisive Word, (86:14) not a flippant jest. (86:15) They are devising a guile, (86:16) and I too am devising a guile. (86:17) So leave the unbelievers to themselves; respite them awhile.
