Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 1 storming tempestuously 2 And [by] the winds that spread [clouds] 3 separating one from another, 4 Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation, 5 To clear or to warn. 6 Verily that which ye are promised is about to befall. 7 So when the stars are put out, 8 Heavens will rent asunder. 9 When the mountains are scattered (to the winds) as dust; 10 And when the messengers are brought unto their time appointed - 11 If one asks, "To which day have such calamitous events been postponed?" 12 For the Day of Sorting out. 13 Would that you knew about the Day of Judgment! 14 On that day, woe will be to those who have rejected God's revelations! 15 Did We not destroy the ancients 16 So shall We make later generations to follow them. 17 Thus do We deal with men of sin. 18 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 19 Did We not create you from a base fluid 20 Which We laid up in a safe abode 21 For a known period (determined by gestation)? 22 For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things). 23 Woe, on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle 25 Both for the living and the dead, 26 And We placed high mountains as anchors in it and gave you sweet water to drink. 27 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 28 (It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny; 29 Proceed to a shadow rising in three columns: 30 which neither provides (cooling) shade nor protection against the flames; 31 "Indeed it throws about sparks (huge) as Forts, 32 Seeming like yellow camels. 33 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 34 On that Day they will be speechless, 35 nor will they be permitted to offer any excuses. 36 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 37 This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former peoples. 38 If you are cunning, then try your cunning against Me! 39 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 40
