Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
By the winds sent forth with beneficence. 1 And by the winds that blow violently, 2 and by the scatterers scattering (rain) 3 thus separating [right and wrong] with all clarity, 4 and by those who reveal revelations (to the prophets) 5 to serve as an excuse or a warning. 6 Surely that which ye are promised will befall. 7 Then when the stars become dim; 8 And when the sky is riven asunder, 9 and the mountains are blown away, 10 And when the time comes for raising the little girls (buried alive) -- 11 to what day shall they be delayed? 12 For the Day of Sorting out. 13 And what will convey unto thee what the Day of Decision is! - 14 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 15 Did We not destroy the ancients, 16 And We shall let them be followed by those of later times: 17 So We serve the sinners. 18 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 19 Did We not create you from an insignificant drop of fluid 20 We then kept it in a safe place. 21 Till an appointed term, 22 Thus We have determined the stages of development and Our power to determine is excellent indeed. 23 On that day, woe would be upon those who have rejected the revelations of God! 24 Have We not made the earth a repository 25 Both for the living and the dead, 26 And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water? 27 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 28 (It will be said to the disbelievers): "Depart you to that which you used to deny! 29 “Move towards the shadow of the smoke having three branches.” 30 unshading against the blazing flame 31 It will throw out sparks as logs of wood 32 As if they were yellowish [black] camels. 33 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 34 This is a Day whereon they shall not be able to speak. 35 And they will not be permitted to put forth any excuse. 36 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth 37 That is the Day of Judgment. We will bring you together with all the ancient peoples. 38 if you have a trick, try you now to trick Me!' 39 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 40
