Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
By the (winds) sent forth in quick succession, 1 And those that strike violently, 2 By those which cause earth's vegetation to revive; 3 and the severally severing 4 and then cast (Allah's) remembrance (in people's hearts), 5 To clear or to warn. 6 BEHOLD, all that you are told to expect will surely come to pass. 7 So when the stars are obliterated 8 and when the sky is rent asunder, 9 And when the mountains are blown away, 10 and when the Messengers' time is set 11 For what day is that time fixed? 12 To the day of decision. 13 And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is? 14 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 15 Destroyed We not the ancients? 16 and let the latter follow them? 17 Even thus shall We deal with the guilty. 18 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! 19 Did We not create you from a base fluid 20 Which We laid up in a safe abode 21 For a known extent. 22 So We decreed. How excellent are We as decreers! 23 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 24 Have We not caused the earth to hold within itself 25 For the living and the dead. 26 Set We not therein soaring mountains? Sated you with sweetest water? 27 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 28 (It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false! 29 "Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns, 30 Neither shady nor protecting against the blazing Fire. 31 that shoots sparks like dry faggots, 32 As though they were camels yellow tawny. 33 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 34 That will be a Day when they shall not speak (during some part of it), 35 neither be given leave, and excuse themselves. 36 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 37 Such is the Day of Decision. We will gather you with the ancients. 38 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). 39 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 40
