At-Tariq

Aṭ-Ṭāriq (Arabic: الطارق, "the Morning Star", "Nightcomer"), is the eighty-sixth sura of the Quran, with 17 ayat or verses. Muslims generally believe this chapter was revealed in Mecca.

The name Al-Târiq refers to anything that arrives at night. The star is called Târiq because it appears during the night. Al-Najm Al-Thâqib refers to a shining star that pierces the darkness with its light. Some scholars interpret it as the Pleiades but it could also be a pulsar, while others suggest it may refer to any bright, penetrating star.

The verse "Indeed, every soul has no guardian over it" means that no one has absolute authority over a soul—except that it has an angelic guardian who records its good and bad deeds.

According to hadith, Muhammad used to recite this surah in Zuhr prayer and Asr prayer.
