The Morning Star, The Nightcomer — Dr Kamal Omar Translation – Parallel Quran

1 The Comer by Night

وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ

The heaven and At-Tariq ('The strictly adhering to a set path') act as a witness (to Allah’s Majesty)

Waalssama-i waalttariqi

وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ

And what made you realise what At-Tariq is

Wama adraka ma alttariqu

النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ

(It is) a star of piercing brightness

Alnnajmu alththaqibu

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ

There is no (human) Nafs but over her is a protector

In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun

فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ

So let the human being ponder from what he has been created

Falyanthuri al-insanu mimma khuliqa

خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ

He is created from a fluid ejecting itself swiftly

Khuliqa min ma-in dafiqin

يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ

it proceeds from between back-bones and the ribs (since it is here where the source initially resides)

Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttara-ibi

إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ

Surely, He is All-Capable over his revival (on the Day of Resurrection)

Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ

the Day when the secrets are subjected to Accountability

Yawma tubla alssara-iru

فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ

Then there is not for him from any (power) and nor (any one) out of that who helps

Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin

وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ

The heaven possessing reemergence [of clouds and rains (is a witness, of the Majesty of its Creator)]

Waalssama-i thati alrrajAAi

وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ

and the earth, possessor of the action of splitting-up

Waal-ardi thati alssadAAi

إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ

Verily, this (Al-Kitab is) indeed a Qawlun Faslun

Innahu laqawlun faslun

وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ

And it is not a senseless statement

Wama huwa bialhazli

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا

Surely, they (i.e., the hypocrites and the disbelievers) plot a stratagem (against the propagation of Al-Kitab)

Innahum yakeedoona kaydan

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا

And I (also) plan a stratagem

Waakeedu kaydan

فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا

So give (some) respite to the disbelievers. Provide them a temporary respite

Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
