Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By oath of those which carry away while dispersing. 1 Then by oath of those which carry the burdens. 2 and the smooth runners 3 Then by oath of those which distribute by the command. 4 surely that you are promised is true, 5 And undoubtedly justice will surely be done. 6 By the heaven containing pathways, 7 Truly ye are in a doctrine discordant, 8 From which only he turns who is turned away. 9 Destroyed are the falsifiers 10 who are steeped in ignorance and heedlessness. 11 they who [mockingly] ask, "When is that Day of Judgment to be?" 12 The day they will be burnt in the Fire, 13 (And told:) "Taste your punishment. This is what you were trying to hasten." 14 Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs, 15 Accepting the rewards given by their Lord; they were indeed virtuous before this. 16 they would lie asleep during but a small part of the night, 17 And every morning asked forgiveness, 18 And the beggar and the destitute had a share in their wealth. 19 On the earth are signs for those of assured Faith, 20 And also in your own selves. Behold ye not? 21 And in the heaven is your providence and that which ye are promised; 22 And by the Lord of the heavens and the earth! it is most surely the truth, just as you do speak. 23
