Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit); 1 which then blow tempestuously 2 by the scatterers scattering 3 And those that distinguish distinctly, 4 Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation, 5 [promising] freedom from blame or [offering] a warning! 6 Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass. 7 Then when the stars lose their lights; 8 and the sky is rent asunder, 9 The mountains will be blown away as dust. 10 and when the messengers are brought together at the appointed time -- 11 for what Day has this been appointed? 12 To the Day of Judgement. 13 What do you know what the Day of Judgement is? 14 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 15 Did We not destroy the ancients 16 And We shall let them be followed by those of later times: 17 Thus do We deal with the sinful ones. 18 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 19 Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?- 20 and place it in a secure place 21 for a term pre-ordained? 22 So We decreed. How excellent are We as decreers! 23 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 24 Have We not made the earth a housing 25 for the living and the dead, 26 and have We not set on it proud, firm mountains, and given you sweet water to drink? 27 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 28 GO ON towards that [resurrection] which you were wont to call a lie! 29 "Depart you to a shadow (of Hell-fire smoke ascending) in three columns, 30 "Which neither gives shade, nor saves from the flame." 31 Surely it sends up sparks like palaces, 32 as black camels. 33 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 34 On that day they will not be able to speak, 35 And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses. 36 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 37 That will be a Day of Decision! We have brought you and the men of old together! 38 If you now have any conspiracy, carry it out on Me. 39 The Day of Judgement. 40
