| 86:1 | | By the heaven and by the night visitor. | | 86:2 | | Would that you knew what the night visitor is! | | 86:3 | | It is the star that pierces through darkness. | | 86:4 | | For every soul there is a guardian who watches over it. | | 86:5 | | Let man then reflect: of what he is created. | | 86:6 | | He is created of gushing water; | | 86:7 | | he issues from between the loins and the chest bones. | | 86:8 | | God is well able to bring him back [to life]. | | 86:9 | | On the day when consciences are tried, | | 86:10 | | man shall be helpless, with no supporter. | | 86:11 | | By the heaven with its returning rain, | | 86:12 | | by the earth ever splitting with verdure, | | 86:13 | | this is surely a decisive word; | | 86:14 | | it is no idle talk. | | 86:15 | | They devise many an artful scheme, | | 86:16 | | but I too have My schemes. | | 86:17 | | So give respite to the unbelievers; leave them alone for a while. |
