Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 1 And by the winds that blow violently, 2 And scatter (things) far and wide; 3 and the severally severing 4 and by those who reveal revelations (to the prophets) 5 to excuse some and warn others: 6 Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass. 7 So when the stars are extinguished, 8 And when the sky is riven asunder, 9 And when the mountains are carried away as dust, 10 And when the time of the Noble Messengers arrives. 11 For what Day are these (portents) deferred? 12 For the Day of Judgement. 13 And what could make thee conceive what that Day of Distinction will be? 14 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 15 Did We not destroy many a nation of the earlier times? 16 We will now cause the later ones to follow them: 17 This is how We deal with the guilty. 18 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 19 Created We you not of water despicable, 20 And We placed it in a firm lodging 21 until an appointed time? 22 Thus We have determined the stages of development and Our power to determine is excellent indeed. 23 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 24 Did We not make the earth a storehouse? 25 The living and the dead, 26 And We placed high mountains as anchors in it and gave you sweet water to drink. 27 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 28 (It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false! 29 Walk on to the covering having three branches, 30 affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames, 31 Surely it sends up sparks like palaces, 32 like giant fiery ropes! 33 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 34 This is a day in which they will not be able to speak. 35 neither be given leave, and excuse themselves. 36 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 37 That is the Day of Judgement on which We have assembled you as well as all those who went before you. 38 If you have any plans, use them. 39 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 40
