Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the swift scatterers 1 by the clouds which are heavily loaded with water, 2 Then those (ships) that glide easily, 3 by the angels which distribute the affairs, 4 What you are promised is certainly true: 5 and surely the Doom is about to fall! 6 I swear by the heaven full of ways. 7 surely you are at variance (about the Hereafter); 8 though only those who are averse to the Truth will turn away from (believing in it). 9 They but destroy themselves, they who are given to guessing at what they cannot ascertain 10 who flounder in the depths of ignorance. 11 they who [mockingly] ask, "When is that Day of Judgment to be?" 12 It will be the Day when they shall be scourged by the Fire 13 Taste your persecution! this is what you would hasten on. 14 Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in gardens and fountains. 15 enjoying all that their Sustainer will have granted them [because,] verily, they were doers of good in the past: 16 They slept very little during the night 17 And in the morning they asked forgiveness. 18 And in their wealth the beggar and the outcast had due share. 19 On the earth, and in yourselves, 20 And in yourselves. Then will you not see? 21 And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised. 22 So by the Lord of heaven and earth, it is as surely true as that you have speech. 23
