81. Tekvir · verses 15–18

فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلۡخُنَّسِ

Fala oqsimu bialkhunnasi

So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede,

ٱلۡجَوَارِ ٱلۡكُنَّسِ

Aljawari alkunnasi

Go straight, or hide;

وَٱلَّيۡلِ إِذَا عَسۡعَسَ

Waallayli itha AAasAAasa

And the Night as it dissipates;

وَٱلصُّبۡحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ

Waalssubhi itha tanaffasa

And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;-
