Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By those [winds] scattering [dust] dispersing 1 which carry clouds laden with water, 2 and those speeding along with ease, 3 And those who distribute (blessings) by command, 4 indeed, that which you are promised is true, 5 And the judgment must most surely come about. 6 By the heaven full of paths. 7 surely you are deeply at variance [as to what to believe] -- 8 and are turned away from him who is turned. 9 Woe to the falsehood-mongers,- 10 who flounder in the depths of ignorance. 11 They ask; "When will be the Day of Recompense?" 12 On that Day they shall be tried at the Fire, 13 (and be told): “Taste your ordeal! This is what you were seeking to hasten.” 14 [But,] behold, the God-conscious will find themselves amid gardens and springs, 15 Receiving what is given them by their Lord. They were surely the virtuous before this. 16 They slept but a little at night, 17 and in the mornings they would ask for forgiveness; 18 And in their wealth the beggar and the outcast had due share. 19 And on the earth are signs for those who have Faith with certainty, 20 and also in yourselves. Can you not see? 21 In the heavens there is your sustenance and that which you were promised (Paradise). 22 By the Lord of the heavens and the earth, this is certainly true even as you speak. 23
