Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
I CALL TO WITNESS those who are sent consecutively, 1 Then by oath of those that push with a strong gust. 2 And by the winds that scatter clouds and rain; 3 then winnow them thoroughly, 4 and those (angels) dropping, reminding 5 By way of excuse or warning. 6 Surely that which ye are promised will befall. 7 Then when the stars lose their lights; 8 The heavens split asunder, 9 and the mountains are blown away, 10 The Messengers will receive their appointments. 11 For what day is it timed? 12 For the Day of Sorting out. 13 What do you know what the Day of Judgement is? 14 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 15 Have We not destroyed the earlier generations? 16 Then caused the latter folk to follow after? 17 thus do We deal with the culprits. 18 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 19 Did We not create you from contemptible water? 20 that We laid within a sure lodging 21 Till a limit known? 22 Thus have We determined [the nature of man's creation]: and excellent indeed is Our power to determine [what is to be]! 23 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 24 Did We not make the earth a receptacle, 25 for the living and the dead, 26 And placed in it lofty and broad stablisers, and gave you sweet water to drink? 27 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 28 (It will be said to the disbelievers): "Depart you to that which you used to deny! 29 Walk on to the covering having three branches, 30 (Which yet is) no relief nor shelter from the flame. 31 that shoots sparks like dry faggots, 32 As if they were tawny camels. 33 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 34 This is a day wherein they speak not, 35 Nor will it be permitted for them to make an excuse. 36 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 37 that Day of Distinction [between the true and the false, when they will be told]: "We have brought you together with those [sinners] of olden times; 38 if you have a trick, try you now to trick Me!' 39 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 40
