Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By those that winnow with a winnowing 1 And those who bear the load (of rain), 2 by the ships which smoothly sail on the oceans, 3 then by the distributors (angels), ordered; 4 Verily that which ye are promised is true; 5 the Judgement will surely come to pass -- 6 By heaven with all its tracks 7 surely you are deeply at variance [as to what to believe] -- 8 From which only he turns who is turned away. 9 Cursed be the liars, 10 they who blunder along, in ignorance lost 11 They ask, "When will the Day of Judgement come?" 12 The day they will be burnt in the Fire, 13 And it will be said to them, “Taste your own roasting; this is what you were impatient for.” 14 [But,] behold, the God-conscious will find themselves amid gardens and springs, 15 taking whatsoever their Lord has given them; they were good-doers before that. 16 They slept little in the night, 17 and at dawn would ask forgiveness, 18 and the beggar and the outcast had a share in their wealth. 19 For those with sure belief there are signs in the earth, 20 and in your selves; what, do you not see? 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 This, by the Lord of the heavens and the earth is as certain as your ability to speak. 23
