Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
By the swift scatterers 1 And the clouds bearing a load. 2 by the ships which smoothly sail on the oceans, 3 And the angels who distribute the affair. 4 surely what you are being warned against is true, 5 And undoubtedly justice will surely be done. 6 By the heaven containing pathways, 7 your ideas are confused. 8 He is made to turn away from it who is (himself) averse. 9 Slain be those who mould from their imaginations. 10 Who are careless in an abyss! 11 asking, 'When shall be the Day of Doom?' 12 It will be on the day when they will be roasted in the fire. 13 [And will be told], "Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient." 14 Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in gardens and fountains. 15 Taking joy in the things which their Lord gives them, because, before then, they lived a good life. 16 They used to sleep but little in the night. 17 And in the hour of early dawn, they (were found) praying for Forgiveness; 18 In whose wealth the suppliant and the deprived had a share. 19 There are many Signs on earth for those of sure faith, 20 And (also) in yourselves. Can ye then not see? 21 And in the heaven is your providence and that which ye are promised; 22 By the Lord of the heaven and the earth, it is certainly the truth. It is as true as your ability to speak. 23
