[Tariq 86:1] By oath of the heaven, and by oath of the nightly arriver.

[Tariq 86:2] And have you understood what the nightly arriver is?

[Tariq 86:3] The very brightly shining star!

[Tariq 86:4] There is not a soul that does not have a guardian over it.

[Tariq 86:5] So man must consider from what he has been created.

[Tariq 86:6] Created from a gushing fluid.

[Tariq 86:7] That is issued from between the backs and the ribs.

[Tariq 86:8] Indeed Allah is Able to return him.

[Tariq 86:9] A day when the secrets will be examined.

[Tariq 86:11] By oath of the sky from which comes down the rain.

[Tariq 86:12] And by oath of the earth which flourishes with it.

[Tariq 86:13] Indeed the Qur’an is a decisive Word.

[Tariq 86:14] And is not a matter of amusement.

[Tariq 86:15] Indeed the disbelievers carry out their evil schemes.

[Tariq 86:16] And I secretly plan.
