Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By those that winnow with a winnowing 1 by the clouds which are heavily loaded with water, 2 and those speeding along with ease, 3 And those who distribute (blessings) by command, 4 What you are threatened with is most surely true, 5 the Judgement will surely come to pass -- 6 I swear by the heaven full of ways. 7 Verily ye are in a divided opinion. 8 Let whoever wishes, turn away from Our Quran. 9 Perish will those who just guess and speculate, 10 who flounder in the depths of ignorance. 11 They ask, "When will the Day of Judgement come?" 12 (It will be) a Day when they will be tried (and tested) over the Fire! 13 "Taste you your trial (burning)! This is what you used to ask to be hastened!" 14 As to the Righteous, they will be in the midst of Gardens and Springs, 15 Taking that which their Lord will vouchsafe unto hem. Verily they have been before that well-doers. 16 They slept very little during the night 17 And used to seek forgiveness before dawn. 18 In whose wealth the suppliant and the deprived had a share. 19 And in the earth are portents for those whose faith is sure. 20 As also in your own selves: Will ye not then see? 21 And in the heaven is your sustenance and what you are threatened with. 22 By the Lord of the heavens and the earth, this is certainly true even as you speak. 23
