Allah swore by the sky, and He swore by the star that knocks at night.

What will inform you, O Messenger, of the status of this great star?

It is the star that pierces the sky with its glimmering light.

There is no soul except that Allah has assigned to it an angel recording its deeds for reckoning on the Day of Resurrection.

So let the human ponder what Allah created him from, so that Allah's omnipotence and man's inability become clear to him.

Allah created him from spurting water that is spilt into the womb.

This water emerges from between the backbone and chest bones of a man.

Indeed, since He, the Exalted, created him from that ignoble water, He has the ability to resurrect him after death for reckoning and recompense.

On the Day when secrets are tested, the intentions, beliefs, and the like that the hearts used to harbor will be exposed. Because of this, the righteous among them will become distinguished from the corrupt.

A person will not have any strength on that day that will prevent them from Allah's torment or an aid to assist them.

Allah swore by the sky that contains rain because it comes down from the sky time after time.

He swore by the earth that cracks open to reveal the plants, fruit, and trees within it.

Indeed, this Quran that is sent down to Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم is a word that separates truth from falsehood, honesty from lying.

It (The Quran) is not frivolous or falsehood. Rather, it is solemn and true.

Indeed, the rejectors of what their Messenger brought plot many schemes to rebuff and invalidate his call.

And I plot a scheme to make the religion apparent and nullify falsehood.

So, give respite, O Messenger, to these disbelievers. Give them a brief respite, and do not seek to hasten their torment and destruction.
