Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By (the winds) that scatter dust. 1 and those that bear the burden [of the rain], 2 and those speeding along with ease, 3 And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter, 4 What you are promised is certainly true: 5 And indeed, the recompense is to occur. 6 By the heaven full of paths, 7 surely you are at variance (about the Hereafter); 8 Only those who are destined to revert, are reverted from it. 9 They but destroy themselves, they who are given to guessing at what they cannot ascertain 10 who are heedless in the immersion. 11 They ask: When is the Day of Judgment? 12 It will be the Day when they shall be scourged by the Fire 13 Taste your burning: this is that which ye sought to be hastened. 14 Verily the God-fearing will be amid Gardens and water-springs. 15 Taking what their Lord gives them; surely they were before that, the doers of good. 16 They slept but a little at night, 17 And ere the dawning of each day would seek forgiveness, 18 And in their property was a portion due to him who begs and to him who is denied (good). 19 In the earth are signs for those having sure faith; 20 and in your selves; what, do you not see? 21 And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised. 22 So by the Lord of heaven and earth, it is as surely true as that you have speech. 23
