Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By the loosed ones successively 1 and then storming on with a tempest's force, 2 Consider these [messages] that spread [the truth] far and wide, 3 by (the angels) who make a clear distinction between right and wrong 4 Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation, 5 Whether of Justification or of Warning;- 6 Surely, what you are promised must come to pass. 7 Then when the stars become dim; 8 And when the heaven is rent asunder, 9 And when the mountains are blown away 10 And when the messengers' time has come... 11 For what day is that time fixed? 12 To the Day of Judgement. 13 What will explain to you what the Day of Judgement is? 14 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 15 Did We not destroy many a nation of the earlier times? 16 and let the latter follow them? 17 [for] thus do We deal with such as are lost in sin. 18 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 19 Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?- 20 and place it in a secure place 21 for an appointed time? 22 For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things). 23 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 24 Have We not made the earth a repository 25 for both the living and the dead? 26 And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to drink sweet water. 27 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 28 (It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false! 29 Walk on to the covering having three branches, 30 “Which neither gives shade, nor saves from the flame.” 31 Verily it shall cast forth sparks like unto a castle. 32 As if they were Jimalatun Sufr (yellow camels or bundles of ropes)." 33 On that day, woe would be upon those who have rejected God's revelations! 34 This is a Day whereon they shall not be able to speak. 35 nor shall they be given permission, so that they can apologize. 36 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 37 That will be a Day of Sorting out! We shall gather you together and those before (you)! 38 So if you have any plot to devise against Me, then devise it. 39 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 40
