Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
By the winds that scatter the dust, 1 And (the clouds) that bear heavy weight of water; 2 And those [ships] sailing with ease 3 and distributing the command of God at His behest! 4 surely what you are being warned against is true, 5 And lo! the judgment will indeed befall. 6 And by oath of the decorated heaven. 7 your ideas are confused. 8 perverted in his views thereon is he who would deceive himself! 9 Cursed be the liars, 10 Those who have forgotten in a state of intoxication. 11 They ask; "When will be the Day of Recompense?" 12 It will be the Day when they are tormented at the Fire. 13 Taste your persecution! this is what you would hasten on. 14 As for the God-fearing, they shall be in the midst of gardens and fountains, 15 They shall receive what their Lord will bestow on them. They have done good works in the past, 16 Little of the night they were wont to slumber. 17 praying at dawn for God's pardon, 18 In whose wealth the suppliant and the deprived had a share. 19 In the earth are signs for those having sure faith; 20 As also in your own selves: Will ye not then see? 21 In the heavens there is your sustenance and that which you were promised (Paradise). 22 By the Lord of the heaven and the earth it is sure, even as it is a fact that ye are speaking. 23
