Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the winds (or angels or the Messengers of Allah) sent forth one after another. 1 By the raging hurricanes, 2 and by the scatterers scattering (rain) 3 And the scattering winds scattering. 4 and those hurling a reminder 5 excusing or warning, 6 Indeed, what you are promised is to occur. 7 So when the stars are put out, 8 It will throw out sparks as logs of wood 9 And when the mountains are blown away 10 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 11 For which day were they appointed? 12 To the Day of Judgement. 13 And what shall teach thee what is the Day of Decision? 14 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 15 Did We not destroy many a nation of the earlier times? 16 And We shall cause those of later times to follow them. 17 Thus do We deal with the guilty. 18 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 19 Did We not create you from a humble fluid, 20 then placed it in a secure repository [the womb], 21 For a known term? 22 We determined, how excellent a Determiner are We! 23 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 24 Made We not the earth to be a housing 25 Both for the living and the dead, 26 And made therein mountains standing firm, lofty (in stature); and provided for you water sweet (and wholesome)? 27 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 28 'Depart unto that which ye were wont to belie. 29 Proceed to a shadow rising in three columns: 30 affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames, 31 and throwing up sparks as huge as towers 32 sparks like to golden herds. 33 On that day, woe would be upon those who have rejected God's revelations! 34 That will be a Day when they shall not speak (during some part of it), 35 nor will they be permitted to offer any excuses. 36 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 37 This is the Day of Judgement. We have assembled you all together with past generations. 38 If you have any plans, use them. 39 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 40
