Surah At-Tariq ( The Night-Comer ) - Aya count 17
وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ
( 1 ) 
By the sky and the night comer -
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ
( 2 ) And what can make you know what is the night comer?
النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ
( 3 ) It is the piercing star -
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ
( 4 ) There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
( 5 ) So let man observe from what he was created.
خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ
( 6 ) He was created from a fluid, ejected,
يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ
( 7 ) Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.
إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ
( 8 ) Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ
( 9 ) The Day when secrets will be put on trial,
فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ
( 10 ) Then man will have no power or any helper.
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ
( 11 ) By the sky which returns [rain]
وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ
( 12 ) And [by] the earth which cracks open,
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ
( 13 ) Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,
وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ
( 14 ) And it is not amusement.
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا
( 15 ) Indeed, they are planning a plan,
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
( 16 ) But I am planning a plan.
فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا
( 17 ) So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.
