Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit), 1 Which then blow violently in tempestuous Gusts, 2 by the scatterers scattering 3 then the criterion (the verses of Koran), separating 4 And those that bring down the Reminder 5 excusing or warning, 6 Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass. 7 So when the stars are made to lose their light, 8 when heaven shall be split 9 And when the mountains are blown away; 10 And when the time of the Noble Messengers arrives. 11 to what day shall they be delayed? 12 To the Day of Judgement. 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 men of old (for their evil)? 16 and make others settle after them in their land? 17 This is how We deal with the guilty. 18 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 19 Did We not create you from a liquid disdained? 20 which We placed within a sure lodging 21 till a known term decreed? 22 For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things). 23 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 24 Have We not made the earth a container 25 For the living and the dead among you? 26 and did We not firmly fix towering mountains on it and give you sweet water to drink? 27 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 28 Proceed to that (the Day of Judgment) which you have rejected. 29 Proceed to that shadow, rising in three columns 30 unshading against the blazing flame 31 and throwing up sparks as huge as towers 32 As if they were tawny camels. 33 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 34 That will be a Day when they shall not speak (during some part of it), 35 nor shall they be given permission, so that they can apologize. 36 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 37 That will be a Day of Decision! We have brought you and the men of old together! 38 and if you [think that you] have a subterfuge left, try to outwit Me!" 39 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! 40
