Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
By (the wind) those sent (as horses') mane (in succession), 1 storming tempestuously 2 And [by] the winds that spread [clouds] 3 Then separate them, one from another, 4 And then by those that instil Remembrance into the hearts. 5 excusing or warning, 6 Surely, what you are promised must come to pass. 7 So when the lights of the stars are put out. 8 And when the sky is split apart. 9 And when the mountains are carried away by wind. 10 and when the Messengers' time is set 11 to what day shall they be deferred? 12 To the Day of Decision. 13 Would that you knew about the Day of Judgment! 14 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 15 Did We not destroy the ancients? 16 We will now cause the later ones to follow them: 17 thus do We deal with the culprits. 18 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 19 Did We not create you of a mean water, 20 Then We placed it in a place of safety (womb), 21 For a known term? 22 We determined, how excellent a Determiner are We! 23 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle, 25 Both for the living and the dead, 26 And placed therein high mountains and given you to drink sweet water therein? 27 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 28 GO ON towards that [resurrection] which you were wont to call a lie! 29 Depart into the shadow of three masses, 30 which neither provides (cooling) shade nor protection against the flames; 31 Indeed hell throws up sparks like huge castles. 32 Seeming like yellow camels. 33 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 34 This is a Day they will not speak, 35 nor shall they be permitted to offer excuses. 36 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 37 And when the time comes for messengers -- 38 So if you have any plot to devise against Me, then devise it. 39 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 40
