Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit), 1 By the raging hurricanes, 2 by the scatterers scattering 3 Then separate them one from another, 4 By those who bring down the Reminder, 5 By way of excuse or warning. 6 that whatever with which you have been warned will inevitably come to pass. 7 So when stars are effaced. 8 And when the sky is split apart. 9 and when the mountains are scattered like dust, 10 And when the apostles are collected at the appointed time, 11 For what day is it timed? 12 For the Day of Decision. 13 Would that you knew what the Day of Decision is! 14 That will be the Day of Reckoning. Gathered will be, and the earlier. 15 Did We not destroy many a nation of the earlier times? 16 Then We will follow them with the later ones. 17 Thus do We deal with the criminals. 18 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 19 Did We not create you of a mean fluid, 20 then placed it in a secure repository [the womb], 21 For a known extent. 22 And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine. 23 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 24 Have We not made the earth (as a place) to draw together. 25 for the living and the dead, 26 And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water? 27 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 28 (It will be said to the disbelievers): "Depart you to that which you used to deny! 29 Depart into the shadow of three masses, 30 affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames, 31 which - behold! - will throw up sparks like [burning] logs, 32 As if they were Jimalatun Sufr (yellow camels or bundles of ropes)." 33 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 34 This is the day they shall not speak 35 Nor will it be open to them to put forth pleas. 36 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! 37 This is the Day of Judgement. We have assembled you all together with past generations. 38 If you now have any conspiracy, carry it out on Me. 39 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 40
