At-Taariq

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ

(11) By the sky which sends back[1903]

وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ

(12) And [by] the earth which splits,[1904]

إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ

(13) Indeed, it [i.e., the Qur’ān] is a decisive statement,

وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ

(14) And it is not amusement.

إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا

(15) Indeed, they are planning a plan,

وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا

(16) But I am planning a plan.

فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا

(17) So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.[1905]
