Main themes of the surah في سورة At-Tariq

صادقة لأن ما يقولونه مما تشتد كراهة النفوس له، فلا يقدر أحد ...

They are truthful because what they say is something that the souls strongly dislike, so no one can turn away from it except with great assistance. '{أمهلهم}' means to turn away from them once, after gradual progression, due to the strength you have gained through gradual progression - which I previously commanded. '{رويداً}' means a brief respite, and soon they will have matters that will bring comfort to the hearts. This is the diminutive form of 'aruwad', a diminutive form used for softening, as Ibn Barjan said: it is a word that conveys gentleness. This is what is intended by the beginning of the verse, that each of them, and everyone else, is protected by His protection, with their words, actions, movements, stillness, and conditions all being recorded. For this is a necessary consequence, as they are in His grasp. The two parties have met on the greatest matter with the clearest proof. The first part of this warning occurred on the day of Badr, then their punishment, humiliation, and abasement followed, until many of them were killed by the sword, and many died a natural death, going to the Fire. The rest remained in a state of subjugation until God honored them through the honor of Islam, and they became among the most prominent and renowned, in order to glorify, honor, and exalt this noble Prophet, may the best of blessings be upon him. God, the Exalted, is the most knowledgeable about what is correct.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ ﴿١﴾

By the sky and the night comer -

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ ﴿٢﴾

And what can make you know what is the night comer?

ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ ﴿٣﴾

It is the piercing star -

إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌۭ ﴿٤﴾

There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.

فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ ﴿٥﴾

So let man observe from what he was created.

خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍۢ دَافِقٍۢ ﴿٦﴾

He was created from a fluid, ejected,

يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ ﴿٧﴾

Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌۭ ﴿٨﴾

Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ ﴿٩﴾

The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍۢ وَلَا نَاصِرٍۢ ﴿١٠﴾

Then man will have no power or any helper.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ ﴿١١﴾

By the sky which returns [rain]

وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ ﴿١٢﴾

And [by] the earth which cracks open,

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌۭ فَصْلٌۭ ﴿١٣﴾

Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ ﴿١٤﴾

And it is not amusement.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا ﴿١٥﴾

Indeed, they are planning a plan,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًۭا ﴿١٦﴾

But I am planning a plan.

فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا ﴿١٧﴾

So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.
