Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
CONSIDER these [messages,] sent forth in waves 1 And those raging swiftly; 2 and the rain-spreading winds, 3 Then by those that clearly differentiate the right and wrong. 4 And those winds that bring down the remembrance. 5 excusing or warning, 6 Surely that which ye are promised will befall. 7 So when the stars are extinguished, 8 And when the heaven is opened 9 when the mountains shall be scattered 10 And when the time comes for raising the little girls (buried alive) -- 11 For what Day was it postponed? 12 For the Day of Decision. 13 And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Decision? 14 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 15 Destroyed We not the ancients? 16 Thereafter We shall cause to follow them the latter ones. 17 As such shall We deal with the sinners. 18 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 19 Did We not create you out of a humble fluid 20 And We placed it in a firm lodging 21 for a term pre-ordained? 22 We determined; excellent determiners are We. 23 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle, 25 The living and the dead, 26 And placed in it lofty and broad stablisers, and gave you sweet water to drink? 27 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 28 “Move towards what you used to deny!” 29 Depart unto the shadow falling threefold, 30 wherein there is neither shade, nor freeing from the blazing flames 31 Verily it shall cast forth sparks like unto a castle. 32 As if they were Jimalatun Sufr (yellow camels or bundles of ropes)." 33 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! 34 This is the Day they shall not speak, 35 Nor will they be given permission to present excuses. 36 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 37 This is the Day of Decision; We have gathered you and all the earlier men. 38 If you have any plans, use them. 39 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 40
