Quran - Chapter 86


By the heaven, and At-Tariq (the night-comer, i.e. the bright star);
And what will make you to know what At-Tariq (night-comer) is?
(It is) the star of piercing brightness;
There is no human being but has a protector over him (or her) (i.e. angels incharge of each human being guarding him, writing his good and bad deeds, etc.)
So let man see from what he is created!
He is created from a water gushing forth.
Proceeding from between the back-bone and the ribs,
Verily, (Allah) is Able to bring him back (to life)!
The Day when all the secrets (deeds, prayers, fasting, etc.) will be examined (as to their truth).
Then will (man) have no power, nor any helper.
By the sky (having rain clouds) which gives rain, again and again.
And the earth which splits (with the growth of trees and plants),
Verily! This (the Quran) is the Word that separates (the truth from falsehood, and commands strict legal laws for mankind to cut the roots of evil).
And it is not a thing for amusement.
Verily, they are but plotting a plot (against you O Muhammad (Peace be upon him)).
And I (too) am planning a plan.
So give a respite to the disbelievers. Deal you gently with them for a while.


IMPORTANT: All Scripture text has context and background. Scripture should never be read literally or in isolation. Always seek clarification from religious scholars and teachers. In general, Scripture adheres to four principles: (1) Literal Meaning - What the Scripture says (2) Historical Setting - The story events; how the Scripture was understood in its time (3) Grammar - The surrounding sentence and paragraph; textual context (4) Synthesis - A comparison with similar Scripture to give a better contextual understanding
