Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the winds that scatter the dust, 1 then the bearers of weight (the clouds), 2 by the ships which smoothly sail on the oceans, 3 And those that distribute and apportion by Command;- 4 What you are promised is certainly true: 5 and surely the Doom is about to fall! 6 The heavens webbed-with-tracks is witness 7 Verily ye are in a divided opinion. 8 he is turned away from [the truth] who is destined to be so turned away. 9 Accursed be the conjecturers 10 Those who have forgotten in a state of intoxication. 11 They ask, "When will be the Day of Judgement?" 12 It will be the Day whereon in the Fire they will be burned 13 And told: "Taste your punishment. This is what you were trying to hasten." 14 The righteous shall live among gardens and fountains, 15 receiving what their Lord will give them because before this they were gooddoers. 16 sleeping little in the night-time, 17 and would ask for forgiveness at dawn, 18 And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived. 19 On the earth, and in yourselves, 20 And also in your own selves. Behold ye not? 21 And in heaven is [the source of] your sustenance [on earth] and [of] all that you are promised [for your life after death]: 22 And by the Lord of the heavens and the earth! it is most surely the truth, just as you do speak. 23
