Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By (the angels) sent forth with the commands of God, 1 And the winds that blow violently 2 Consider these [messages] that spread [the truth] far and wide, 3 And those that distinguish distinctly, 4 and those (angels) dropping, reminding 5 To clear or to warn. 6 that whatever with which you have been warned will inevitably come to pass. 7 So when the stars are extinguished, 8 When the heaven is cleft asunder; 9 And when the mountains are blown away, 10 And when the time of the Noble Messengers arrives. 11 For what day is the time appointed? 12 The Day of Judgement. 13 Would that you knew about the Day of Judgment! 14 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 15 Did We not destroy the men of old (for their evil)? 16 And We shall let them be followed by those of later times: 17 So We serve the sinners. 18 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 19 Did We not create you from contemptible water? 20 We then kept it in a safe place. 21 For a known term? 22 And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine. 23 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle? 25 For the living and the dead. 26 And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to drink sweet water. 27 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! 28 (It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny; 29 "Depart you to a shadow (of Hell-fire smoke ascending) in three columns, 30 Neither shading nor availing against the flame. 31 Verily it shall cast forth sparks like unto a castle. 32 and as bright as a herd of yellow camels. 33 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 34 On that Day they will be speechless, 35 Nor will they be given permission to present excuses. 36 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth 37 that Day of Distinction [between the true and the false, when they will be told]: "We have brought you together with those [sinners] of olden times; 38 If you have any plans, use them. 39 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 40
