All,

 

Let�s look at sura 86, as a whole, so that it can be more clearly understood�

 

 

86�

 

.1         And/by the clouds, and/by the Night Comer/One who knocks/Morning Star. 

 

.2         And what made you know/informed you what the Night Comer/One who knocks/Morning Star is?

 

.3         The star, or asterism, brightly shining.

 

.4         Verily every soul hath over it a guardian.

 

.5         So, in order to inform mankind from that which originated the inner man.

 

.6         The inner man originated from water pouring/jetting/flowing forcefully.

 

.7         He comes forth from between the backbone/loins/spine and the breast bone/rib bones.

 

.8         When His (is) upon/near/above He returned/was brought back the one who has power over.

 

.9         A day/time all secrets/intentions be tested/exposed/will turn to its reality.

 

.10       So that no strength/power from and nor Savior for him.

 

.11       And/by the clouds He returned.

 

.12       And/by the entire Earth that of the splitting/separation/geological rift-fault line.

 

.13       When His word (of) Judgment.

 

.14       And that He (is not) in vain.

 

.15       When they devise a scheme.

 

.16       And I devise and accomplish.

 

.17       Then respite gently all the disbelievers, respite them gently for a little while.     

 

 

 

 

 

 

Red = Jesus� Crucifixion and Resurrection�

 

Green = Jesus� Second Coming�

 

 

 

Thanks...

Peace,

Here yusuf ali translation (from comprehensive search, above), I think this surah doesn't not talk about jesus but for general mankind:

Surah 86 - At-Tariq (The Night-Comer) / Yusuf Ali

86:1 By the Sky and the Night-Visitant (therein);-
86:2 And what will explain to thee what the Night-Visitant is?-
86:3 (It is) the Star of piercing brightness;-
86:4 There is no soul but has a protector over it.
86:5 Now let man but think from what he is created!
86:6 He is created from a drop emitted-
86:7 Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
86:8 Surely ((Allah)) is able to bring him back (to life)!
86:9 The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
86:10 (Man) will have no power, and no helper.
86:11 By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
86:12 And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation),-
86:13 Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
86:14 It is not a thing for amusement.
86:15 As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
86:16 And I am planning a scheme.
86:17 Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).

Assalamu alaikum,

I'm looking at the Arabic text right now. Ayat five literally says: "then let mankind ""Al'Insanu" recollect from what he was created."

applepie's translation is nonsense.

fa: consequential conjunction

l+jussive passive imperfective third person masculine singular form of "nath.ara" (to look, behold, see, consider) indicating hortatory form

al 'insanu: (collective noun: mankind) nominative form indicating subject of the verb "yunthir"

falyunth.iri il-insanu therefore means "then let mankind be shown"

mimma: contraction of min ma: from what

khuliqa: passive perfect 3rd person masculine singular form of khaliqa (to create), clearly agreeing with al-insanu

mimma khuliqa therefore means "from what he was created."

"Then let mankind be shown from what he was created."

Crystal clear.
