مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ ۝١

By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);-

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ ۝٢

And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?-

ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ ۝۳

(It is) the Star of piercing brightness;-

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌۭ ۝٤

There is no soul but has a protector over it.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ۝٥

Now let man but think from what he is created!

خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍۢ دَافِقٍۢ ۝٦

He is created from a drop emitted-

يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ ۝۷

Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:

إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌۭ ۝۸

Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ ۝۹

The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,

فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍۢ وَلَا نَاصِرٍۢ ۝١۰

(Man) will have no power, and no helper.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ ۝١١

By the Firmament which returns (in its round),

وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ ۝١٢

And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation),-

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌۭ فَصْلٌۭ ۝١۳

Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):

وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ ۝١٤

It is not a thing for amusement.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا ۝١٥

As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًۭا ۝١٦

And I am planning a scheme.

فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا ۝١۷

Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).
