Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the (Winds) that scatter broadcast; 1 and the burden-bearers 2 And the ships that glide with ease. 3 and the partitioners, 4 Verily, that which you are promised is true indeed, 5 And lo! the judgment will indeed befall. 6 By heaven with all its tracks 7 surely you are at variance (about the Hereafter); 8 He is made to turn away from it who is (himself) averse. 9 Cursed be the liars, 10 Who are lost in deception. 11 They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?" 12 On that Day they shall be tried at the Fire, 13 'Taste your trial. This is what you have sought to hasten' 14 Surely the God-fearing will find themselves in the midst of gardens and springs. 15 Taking that which their Lord giveth them; for lo! aforetime they were doers of good; 16 they used to sleep but little by night, 17 And used to seek forgiveness before dawn. 18 In whose wealth the suppliant and the deprived had a share. 19 And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith] 20 And in your own souls (too); will you not then see? 21 And in the heaven is your sustenance and what you are threatened with. 22 So, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, this is certainly true, as true as the fact of your speaking. 23
