Summarized notes on Surah At-Taariq

Every soul has a guardian over it. Consider how man was created just from a gushing fluid. (Similarly) God is indeed able to return man to life after death. Every thought will be uncovered and there will be no helper. The Quran is a decisive word - no flippant jest (joke). Let the disbelievers plan against Muhammad (PBUH), and God will plan against them. Leave them.

The Quran is clearly revelation from the One God, Who created all. The word Quran means recitation. Read about its compilation here - Islamweb.net. ExploreQuran.org displays Quran chapters in both, the actual compilation order (in printed copies), as well as a revelation order which might provide a different approach for exploring the Holy Quran.
