Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
By the dipersing winds that disperse. 1 Then those clouds bearing the load (of minute things in space). 2 And those that flow with ease and gentleness; 3 and those that apportion [the gift of life] at [God's] behest! 4 surely that you are promised is true, 5 and the recompense shall surely happen. 6 by the heaven full of tracks, 7 Indeed, you are in differing speech. 8 From which only he turns who is turned away. 9 Cursed be the liars, 10 who flounder in the depths of ignorance. 11 They ask: “When will the Day of Judgement be?” 12 (It is) the day when they will be tormented at the Fire, 13 and will be told, "Suffer the torment which you wanted to experience immediately". 14 The pious ones will live amidst gardens and springs, 15 receiving their reward from their Lord. They had been righteous people before the Day of Judgment. 16 They used to sleep but little of the night, 17 and would ask for forgiveness at dawn, 18 and in their wealth was a share for whosoever asked and for whosoever was prevented. 19 In the earth are signs for those having sure faith; 20 And in yourselves. Then will you not see? 21 There is in the heavens your sustenance, and whatever has been promised you. 22 Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking. 23
