    Read the passage · At-Taariq

    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ١

    By the sky and the night comer -

    وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ٢

    And what can make you know what is the night comer?

    ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ٣

    It is the piercing star -

    إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍۢ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌۭ٤

    There is no soul but that it has over it a protector.

    فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ٥

    So let man observe from what he was created.

    خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍۢ دَافِقٍۢ٦

    He was created from a fluid, ejected,

    يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ٧

    Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs.

    إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌۭ٨

    Indeed, Allah, to return him [to life], is Able.

    يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ٩

    The Day when secrets will be put on trial,

    فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍۢ وَلَا نَاصِرٍۢ١٠

    Then man will have no power or any helper.

    وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ١١

    By the sky which returns [rain]

    وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ١٢

    And [by] the earth which cracks open,

    إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌۭ فَصْلٌۭ١٣

    Indeed, the Qur'an is a decisive statement,

    وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ١٤

    And it is not amusement.

    إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًۭا١٥

    Indeed, they are planning a plan,

    وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًۭا١٦

    But I am planning a plan.

    فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا١٧

    So allow time for the disbelievers. Leave them awhile.

    Read the passage · Al-A'laa

    بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

    سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى١

    Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High,

    ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ٢

    Who created and proportioned

    وَٱلَّذِى قَدَّرَ فَهَدَىٰ٣

    And who destined and [then] guided

    وَٱلَّذِىٓ أَخْرَجَ ٱلْمَرْعَىٰ٤

    And who brings out the pasture

    فَجَعَلَهُۥ غُثَآءً أَحْوَىٰ٥

    And [then] makes it black stubble.

    سَنُقْرِئُكَ فَلَا تَنسَىٰٓ٦

    We will make you recite, [O Muhammad], and you will not forget,

    إِلَّا مَا شَآءَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ يَعْلَمُ ٱلْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَىٰ٧

    Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden.

    وَنُيَسِّرُكَ لِلْيُسْرَىٰ٨

    And We will ease you toward ease.

    فَذَكِّرْ إِن نَّفَعَتِ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ٩

    So remind, if the reminder should benefit;

    سَيَذَّكَّرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰ١٠

    He who fears [Allah] will be reminded.

    وَيَتَجَنَّبُهَا ٱلْأَشْقَى١١

    But the wretched one will avoid it -

    ٱلَّذِى يَصْلَى ٱلنَّارَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ١٢

    [He] who will [enter and] burn in the greatest Fire,

    ثُمَّ لَا يَمُوتُ فِيهَا وَلَا يَحْيَىٰ١٣

    Neither dying therein nor living.

    قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ١٤

    He has certainly succeeded who purifies himself

    وَذَكَرَ ٱسْمَ رَبِّهِۦ فَصَلَّىٰ١٥

    And mentions the name of his Lord and prays.

    بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا١٦

    But you prefer the worldly life,

    وَٱلْءَاخِرَةُ خَيْرٌۭ وَأَبْقَىٰٓ١٧

    While the Hereafter is better and more enduring.

    إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَفِى ٱلصُّحُفِ ٱلْأُولَىٰ١٨

    Indeed, this is in the former scriptures,

    صُحُفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ وَمُوسَىٰ١٩

    The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently. The live tracker's ayat begin on 25 September 2026; for earlier days this page shows the Haramain library's records.

Look up a day

Hijri date

Where this comes from

Each prayer's imam, passage and recording are listed by the Haramain library, Tilawat al-Haramain (tilawatalharamain.com), usually within a few hours of the prayer. Its titles are written by hand; Hasanah reads the surahs and ayat from them.

The ayat by rak'ah come from Hasanah's live tracker, which listens to the Quran channel's broadcast from the Haram and names each ayah as it is recited. It has kept them since 25 September 2026. It can miss an ayah or mishear one, so a passage it heard may be a little shorter or longer than the one recited.

Dhuhr and Asr are prayed silently, so there is no recitation to show for them. Times are calculated for Makkah by the Umm al-Qura method.
