Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the scatterers (the wind) scattering, 1 And the clouds bearing a load. 2 Then those (ships) that glide easily, 3 And the angels who distribute the affair. 4 Lo! that wherewith ye are threatened is indeed true, 5 And the judgment must most surely come about. 6 By the heaven with its passages, 7 You are indeed in different opinions regarding this Qur’an. 8 and are turned away from him who is turned. 9 Perish will those who just guess and speculate, 10 who are heedless in the immersion. 11 They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?" 12 The day they will be burnt in the Fire, 13 And it will be said to them, “Taste your own roasting; this is what you were impatient for.” 14 Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in gardens and fountains. 15 Accepting the rewards given by their Lord; they were indeed virtuous before this. 16 They slept very little during the night 17 And used to seek forgiveness before dawn. 18 And the beggar and the destitute had a share in their wealth. 19 On the earth, and in yourselves, 20 there are signs for firm believers. Do you not see then? 21 And in the heaven is your providence and that which ye are promised; 22 So, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, this is certainly true, as true as the fact of your speaking. 23
