Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
I CALL TO witness those who scatter (dust) by dispersing, 1 which carry clouds laden with water, 2 Then by oath of those which move with ease. 3 And the angels who distribute the affair. 4 Indeed, what you are promised is true. 5 and the Day of Judgment will inevitably take place. 6 By the heaven full of paths, 7 surely, you are in different sayings, 8 From which only he turns who is turned away. 9 Perish the conjecturers 10 they who blunder along, in ignorance lost 11 asking, 'When shall be the Day of Doom?' 12 The day they will be burnt in the Fire, 13 (And it will be said unto them): Taste your torment (which ye inflicted). This is what ye sought to hasten. 14 As to the Righteous, they will be in the midst of Gardens and Springs, 15 Taking that which their Lord giveth them; for lo! aforetime they were doers of good; 16 They slept little in the night, 17 And in the dawns they prayed for forgiveness. 18 and in their wealth there was a rightful share for him who would ask and for the destitute. 19 And in the earth there are signs for those who are sure, 20 And in your own selves; so can you not perceive? 21 And in the heaven is your sustenance and what you are threatened with. 22 By the Lord of the heaven and the earth it is sure, even as it is a fact that ye are speaking. 23
