Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By (the winds) that scatter dust. 1 and those that bear the burden [of the rain], 2 And the ships that glide with ease. 3 And those that distribute and apportion by Command;- 4 Verily that which ye are promised is true; 5 And undoubtedly justice will surely be done. 6 By the heaven full of paths. 7 surely you speak at variance, 8 Let whoever wishes, turn away from Our Quran. 9 Destroyed are the falsifiers 10 who are heedless in the immersion. 11 They ask, "When it will be the Day of Judgment?" 12 It will be the Day when they are tormented at the Fire. 13 And it will be said to them, “Taste your own roasting; this is what you were impatient for.” 14 As for the God-fearing, they shall be in the midst of gardens and fountains, 15 Receiving what is given them by their Lord. They were surely the virtuous before this. 16 they would lie asleep during but a small part of the night, 17 and would pray for forgiveness from their innermost hearts; 18 And in their property was a portion due to him who begs and to him who is denied (good). 19 And in the earth there are signs for those who are sure, 20 and also in yourselves. Can you not see? 21 And in the heaven lies your sustenance, and the promise you are given. 22 By the Lord of the heavens and the earth, this is certainly true even as you speak. 23
