Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
I CALL TO WITNESS those who are sent consecutively, 1 And those raging swiftly; 2 by (the angels) spreading (the words of God) far and wide, 3 And those that distinguish distinctly, 4 And those [angels] who deliver a message 5 To end all argument or to warn. 6 Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass. 7 When the stars are extinguished, 8 and the sky is rent asunder, 9 and the mountains scattered, 10 And when the messengers are (all) appointed a time (to collect);- 11 To what day is the doom fixed? 12 For the Day of Sorting out. 13 And what will convey unto thee what the Day of Decision is! - 14 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 15 Did We not destroy the ancients? 16 So shall We make later generations to follow them. 17 Even thus shall We deal with the guilty. 18 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 19 Did We not create you of a mean fluid, 20 which We then let remain in [the womb's] firm keeping 21 For a known extent. 22 So We proportion it-- how well are We at proportioning (things). 23 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle 25 For the living and the dead. 26 And placed in it lofty and broad stablisers, and gave you sweet water to drink? 27 On that Day (of Judgment) woe would be upon those who have rejected God's revelations! 28 Proceed to that which you denied. 29 Go to the shadow with three ramifications, 30 unshading against the blazing flame 31 that shoots sparks like dry faggots, 32 like giant fiery ropes! 33 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 34 This is the day they shall not speak 35 Nor given leave to make excuses. 36 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 37 Such is the Day of Decision. We will gather you with the ancients. 38 if you have a trick, try you now to trick Me!' 39 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 40
