Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By the winds sent forth with beneficence. 1 And by the winds that blow violently, 2 And scatter (things) far and wide; 3 thus separating [right and wrong] with all clarity, 4 By those who bring down the Reminder, 5 to excuse some and warn others: 6 Indeed, what you are promised is to occur. 7 So when the stars are obliterated 8 When the heaven is cleft asunder; 9 The mountains reduced to dust and blown away, 10 And when the apostles are collected at the appointed time, 11 For what Day was it postponed? 12 To the Day of Judgement. 13 How will you comprehend what the Day of Judgement is? 14 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 15 Did We not destroy the men of old (for their evil)? 16 Then caused the latter folk to follow after? 17 As such shall We deal with the sinners. 18 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 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 We determined, how excellent a Determiner are We! 23 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 24 Did We not make the earth a receptacle, 25 The living and the dead, 26 and did We not firmly fix towering mountains on it and give you sweet water to drink? 27 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 28 (It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny; 29 "Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns, 30 Neither shady nor protecting against the blazing Fire. 31 Indeed hell throws up sparks like huge castles. 32 and yellow camels. 33 On that day, woe would be upon those who have rejected God's revelations! 34 That will be the Day on which they will not (be able to) utter a word, 35 nor will they be allowed to proffer excuses. 36 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 37 'This is the Day of Decision; We have joined you with the ancients; 38 If you now have any conspiracy, carry it out on Me. 39 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 40
