مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ ۝١

By heaven and the night-star!

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ ۝٢

And what shall teach thee what is the night-star?

ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ ۝۳

The piercing star!

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌۭ ۝٤

Over every soul there is a watcher.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ۝٥

So let man consider of what he was created;

خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍۢ دَافِقٍۢ ۝٦

he was created of gushing water

يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ ۝۷

issuing between the loins and the breast-bones.

إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌۭ ۝۸

Surely He is able to bring him back

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ ۝۹

upon the day when the secrets are tried,

فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍۢ وَلَا نَاصِرٍۢ ۝١۰

and he shall have no strength, no helper.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ ۝١١

By heaven of the returning rain,

وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ ۝١٢

by earth splitting with verdure,

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌۭ فَصْلٌۭ ۝١۳

surely it is a decisive word;

وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ ۝١٤

it is no merriment.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا ۝١٥

They are devising guile,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًۭا ۝١٦

and I am devising guile.

فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا ۝١۷

So respite the unbelievers; delay with them awhile.
