Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By those that winnow with a winnowing 1 And those who bear the load (of rain), 2 And (the ships) that float with ease and gentleness; 3 Then by oath of those which distribute by the command. 4 Undoubtedly, the promise you are given is surely true. 5 and the recompense shall surely happen. 6 By the Sky with (its) numerous Paths, 7 surely you speak at variance, 8 and perverted therefrom are some. 9 Death to those whose opinions are merely baseless conjectures. 10 they who blunder along, in ignorance lost 11 They ask, "When it will be the Day of Judgment?" 12 It will be on the day when they will be roasted in the fire. 13 'Taste your trial! This is that you were seeking to hasten.' 14 Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs, 15 Taking joy in the things which their Lord gives them, because, before then, they lived a good life. 16 they used to sleep but little by night, 17 And in the hour of early dawn, they (were found) praying for Forgiveness; 18 and sharing their possessions with the beggars and the deprived. 19 And in the earth are signs for those who are certain. 20 And also in your own selves. Behold ye not? 21 And in the heaven is your providence and that which ye are promised; 22 By the Lord of the heavens and the earth, this is certainly true even as you speak. 23
