Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the emissary winds, (sent) one after another 1 By the raging hurricanes, 2 And scatter (things) far and wide; 3 And by the Verses (of the Quran) that separate the right from the wrong. 4 Then spread abroad a Message, 5 excusing or warning, 6 Surely that which ye are promised will befall. 7 Then when the stars lose their lights; 8 And when the heaven is opened 9 The mountains reduced to dust and blown away, 10 and when all the apostles are called together at a time appointed... 11 For what Day was it postponed? 12 To the Day of Judgement. 13 And what knowest thou what the Day of Decision is? 14 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth. 15 Did We not destroy the former generations? 16 And We shall cause those of later times to follow them. 17 Thus do We deal with the guilty. 18 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 19 Did We not create you from a worthless water (semen, etc.)? 20 which We placed within a sure lodging 21 till a known term decreed? 22 So We proportion it-- how well are We at proportioning (things). 23 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle, 25 For the living and the dead among you? 26 place on it high mountains and provide you with fresh water? 27 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 28 Proceed to that which you denied. 29 Walk on to the covering having three branches, 30 that will offer no [cooling] shade and will be of no avail against the flame 31 Surely it sends up sparks like palaces, 32 which seem as though they are yellow-coloured camels. 33 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 34 This is the day on which they shall not speak, 35 Nor will they be given permission to present excuses. 36 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 37 'This is the Day of Decision; We have joined you with the ancients; 38 If now you have any strategy, use it against Me. 39 Woe on the day unto the beliers! 40
