Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the swift scatterers 1 by the clouds which are heavily loaded with water, 2 and the smooth runners 3 And those that distribute and apportion by Command;- 4 Verily, that which you are promised is true indeed, 5 And undoubtedly justice will surely be done. 6 By heaven with all its tracks 7 Verily ye are in a divided opinion. 8 Deluded away from the Qur'an is he who is deluded. 9 Perish the conjecturers 10 who are steeped in ignorance and heedlessness. 11 They ask, “When will be the Day of Judgement?” 12 It will be on the day when they will be roasted in the fire. 13 (And it will be said unto them): Taste your torment (which ye inflicted). This is what ye sought to hasten. 14 Verily the God-fearing will be amid Gardens and water-springs. 15 receiving their reward from their Lord. They had been righteous people before the Day of Judgment. 16 They used to sleep only a little during the night. 17 And in the hours before dawn, they were (found) asking (Allah) for forgiveness, 18 and [would assign] in all that they possessed a due share unto such as might ask [for help] and such as might suffer privation. 19 And in the earth are signs for those who are certain. 20 And in yourselves. Then will you not see? 21 And in heaven is your provision, and that you are promised. 22 And by the Lord of the heavens and the earth, it is the truth, even as (it is true) that ye speak. 23
