Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By those [winds] sent forth in gusts 1 and then storming on with a tempest's force, 2 and by the scatterers scattering (rain) 3 Then separate them, one from another, 4 And then by those that instil Remembrance into the hearts. 5 [promising] freedom from blame or [offering] a warning! 6 that whatever with which you have been warned will inevitably come to pass. 7 So when the stars are obliterated 8 The heavens split asunder, 9 The mountains will be blown away as dust. 10 And when the apostles are collected at the appointed time, 11 For what day is it timed? 12 To the day of decision. 13 And what could make thee conceive what that Day of Distinction will be? 14 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 15 Destroyed We not the former folk, 16 and make others settle after them in their land? 17 Thus deal We ever with the guilty. 18 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 19 Did We not create you from an insignificant drop of fluid 20 Then We placed it in a secure resting-place, 21 for a term pre-ordained? 22 We determined, how excellent a Determiner are We! 23 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 24 Did We not make the earth a storehouse? 25 for the living and for the dead? 26 Have We not placed high mountains upon it and filled you with sweet water? 27 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 28 (It will be said to the disbelievers): "Depart you to that which you used to deny! 29 "Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns, 30 wherein there is neither shade, nor freeing from the blazing flames 31 that shoots sparks like dry faggots, 32 and yellow camels. 33 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 34 This is a Day they will not speak, 35 nor will they be allowed to proffer excuses. 36 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 37 This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former peoples. 38 So if you have any ploy, try it against Me! 39 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 40
