Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
CONSIDER the winds that scatter the dust far and wide, 1 and the burden-bearers 2 Then those (ships) that glide easily, 3 And those who distribute (blessings) by command, 4 What you are threatened with is most surely true, 5 And verily, the Recompense is sure to happen. 6 By the heaven full of paths, 7 Verily ye are in a divided opinion. 8 Let whoever wishes, turn away from Our Quran. 9 Slain be those who mould from their imaginations. 10 they who blunder along, in ignorance lost 11 They ask, "When will the Day of Judgement come?" 12 [It will be] a Day when they will be sorely tried by the fire, 13 (And it will be said unto them): Taste your torment (which ye inflicted). This is what ye sought to hasten. 14 The pious ones will live amidst gardens and springs, 15 receiving what their Lord will give them because before this they were gooddoers. 16 They slept but a little at night, 17 and at dawn would ask forgiveness, 18 And in their properties there was the right of the beggar, and the Mahrum (the poor who does not ask the others). 19 And in the earth are signs for those who are certain. 20 there are signs for firm believers. Do you not see then? 21 In the sky is your provision and that which you are promised. 22 Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth - just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking. 23
