Sorah At-Tariq ( The Night-Comer ) - Verses Number 17
وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ ( 1 ) 
By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);-
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ ( 2 )
And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?-
النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ ( 3 )
(It is) the Star of piercing brightness;-
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ ( 4 )
There is no soul but has a protector over it.
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ( 5 )
Now let man but think from what he is created!
خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ ( 6 )
He is created from a drop emitted-
يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ ( 7 )
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ ( 8 )
Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ ( 9 )
The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ ( 10 )
(Man) will have no power, and no helper.
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ ( 11 )
By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ ( 12 )
And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation),-
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ ( 13 )
Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ ( 14 )
It is not a thing for amusement.
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا ( 15 )
As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا ( 16 )
And I am planning a scheme.
فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا ( 17 )
Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).

- Islam Our ChoiceIslam consists of God’s guidance to humanity. It is not the religion of any particular people. It does not belong to any specific land. All Prophets of God, in all ages, and at all places, preached this very religion.

- WHY DO WE PRAY?Why does Man need to Pray?. After a long and hectic day at work, how difficult it is for a tired person to stand on the prayer-mat and concentrate on his prayers to Allah Almighty. Snuggled in a warm and cozy bed, how difficult it is to get up at the call of Mu’adhdhin: “Come to prayer, come to success.” The famous doctor and philosopher Ibn Sina (Avicenna), recalls such a moment in his life. Once cold and icy night, he and his slave were resting in an inn in a remote part of Khurasan. During the night he felt thirsty and shouted out to his slave to get him some water. The salve had no desire to leave his warm bed, so he pretended not to hear Avicenna’s call. But finally after repeated calls he reluctantly got up and went to fetch the water. A little while later, the melodious sound of the Adhan filled the air. Avicenna began to think about the person calling the believers to prayer.
