Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the (winds) sent forth in quick succession, 1 storming tempestuously 2 And those that revive by quickening, 3 Then separate them, one from another, 4 and by those who reveal revelations (to the prophets) 5 to excuse some and warn others: 6 Surely that which ye are promised will befall. 7 So when the stars are obliterated 8 It will throw out sparks as logs of wood 9 And when the mountains are made into dust and blown away. 10 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 11 To what day is the doom fixed? 12 For the Day of Distinction [between the true and the false]! 13 How will you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is? 14 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 15 Did We not destroy the earlier people? 16 So shall We make later generations to follow them. 17 This is how We deal with the guilty. 18 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 19 "Eat and drink with relish as reward for what you had done." 20 which We placed within a sure lodging 21 Till an appointed term, 22 Thus have We determined [the nature of man's creation]: and excellent indeed is Our power to determine [what is to be]! 23 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 24 Did We not make the earth as a gathering place 25 Of the living and the dead? 26 Have We not placed high mountains upon it and given you fresh water to drink? 27 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 28 [They will be told], "Proceed to that which you used to deny. 29 And those that revive by quickening, 30 affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames, 31 which - behold! - will throw up sparks like [burning] logs, 32 and as bright as a herd of yellow camels. 33 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 34 That will be the Day on which they will not (be able to) utter a word, 35 nor be allowed to proffer excuses! 36 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth 37 This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former peoples. 38 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). 39 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 40
