Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By (the angels) sent forth with the commands of God, 1 and then storming on with a tempest's force! 2 By the spreading winds spreading. 3 And the scattering winds scattering. 4 by those who bring down the reminder, 5 By way of excuse or warning. 6 surely that which you are promised is about to fall! 7 Then the stars will lose their light. 8 and when the sky is rent asunder, 9 and the mountains are blown away, 10 and when the messengers are brought together at the appointed time -- 11 For which day were they appointed? 12 Upon the Day of Decision! 13 And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is? 14 That will be the Day of Reckoning. Gathered will be, and the earlier. 15 Did We not destroy the former peoples? 16 So shall We make later generations to follow them. 17 Thus do We deal with the Mujrimun (polytheists, disbelievers, sinners, criminals, etc.)! 18 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 19 Did We not create you from a base fluid 20 And We placed it in a firm lodging 21 for an appointed term? 22 So We decreed. How excellent are We as decreers! 23 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle. 25 For the living and the dead among you? 26 And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water? 27 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 28 (It will be said to the disbelievers): "Depart you to that which you used to deny! 29 And those that revive by quickening, 30 "(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze. 31 and throwing up sparks as huge as towers 32 as black camels. 33 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 34 On that day they will not be able to speak, 35 nor will they be allowed to proffer excuses. 36 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 37 And when the time comes for messengers -- 38 If you have any plans, use them. 39 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 40
