Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By those that winnow with a winnowing 1 And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water] 2 Then those (ships) that glide easily, 3 And the angels who distribute the affair. 4 What you are promised is certainly true: 5 and surely the Doom is about to fall! 6 CONSIDER the firmament full of starry paths! 7 your ideas are confused. 8 He is turned away from it who would be turned away. 9 Accursed be the conjecturers 10 who are heedless in the immersion. 11 They ask, “When will be the Day of Judgement?” 12 [It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire 13 (And it will be said unto them): Taste your torment (which ye inflicted). This is what ye sought to hasten. 14 Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs, 15 Taking joy in the things which their Lord has given them. Verily, they were before this Muhsinun (good-doers - see V. 2:112). 16 they used to sleep but little by night, 17 And every morning asked forgiveness, 18 And the beggar and the destitute had a share in their wealth. 19 And in the earth there are signs for those who are sure, 20 and in your selves; what, do you not see? 21 And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised. 22 By the Lord of the heaven and the earth it is sure, even as it is a fact that ye are speaking. 23
