Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By the winds sent forth in swift succession, 1 by (the angels) as swift as blowing winds, 2 And scatter (things) far and wide; 3 Then separate them one from another, 4 and then giving forth a reminder, 5 to serve as an excuse or a warning. 6 Surely that which ye are promised will befall. 7 When the stars shall be extinguished, 8 When the heaven is cleft asunder; 9 And when the mountains are carried away by wind. 10 The Messengers will receive their appointments. 11 For what day is it timed? 12 To the day of decision. 13 And what can make you know what is the Day of Judgement? 14 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 15 Did We not destroy the former peoples? 16 Then caused the latter folk to follow after? 17 [for] thus do We deal with such as are lost in sin. 18 On that day, woe upon those who have rejected God's revelations! 19 Did We not create you from contemptible water? 20 Then We lodged you in a secure place (the womb) 21 till a known term decreed? 22 We determined; excellent determiners are We. 23 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 24 Did We not make the earth as a gathering place 25 Both for the living and the dead, 26 and have We not set on it proud, firm mountains, and given you sweet water to drink? 27 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 28 Walk on to that which you called a lie. 29 “Move towards the shadow of the smoke having three branches.” 30 [But having] no cool shade and availing not against the flame." 31 Verily! It (Hell) throws sparks (huge) as Al-Qasr [a fort or a Qasr (huge log of wood)], 32 as black camels. 33 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 34 On that Day they will be speechless, 35 And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses. 36 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 37 This is the day of decision: We have gathered you and those of yore. 38 So if you have a plot, use it against Me (Allah)! 39 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 40
