Tazkirul Quran(Maulana Wahiduddin Khan) tafsir for Surah At-Tariq — Ayah 1

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ ١ وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ ٢ ٱلنَّجۡمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ ٣

You are reading tafsir of 3 ayahs: 86:1 to 86:3.

A star shining upon a man is a symbolic reminder of the fact that an Observer is watching him. This Observer is recording man’s deeds. He will resurrect man after his death and take the reckoning of all his deeds. It is the period of respite (during which man is put to the test) which acts as a ‘wedge’ between man and the aforesaid event. As soon as the period of trial is over, he will face the consequences—from which he seems to be far away today.
