Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By those [winds] sent forth in gusts 1 Have We not made the earth a repository 2 and raise (clouds) and scatter them around, 3 And the scattering winds scattering. 4 And those that bring down the Reminder 5 To cut off all excuses or to warn; 6 Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass. 7 So when the stars are obliterated 8 And when the heaven is rent asunder, 9 And when the mountains are carried away as dust, 10 And when the apostles are collected at the appointed time, 11 to what day shall they be delayed? 12 To the day of decision. 13 And what knowest thou what the Day of Decision is? 14 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 15 Did We not destroy the ancient people 16 And We shall let them be followed by those of later times: 17 Thus deal We ever with the guilty. 18 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 19 Did We not create you of a mean water, 20 Then We placed it in a place of safety (womb), 21 till a known term decreed? 22 We determined, how excellent a Determiner are We! 23 Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth! 24 Did We not make the earth a storehouse? 25 for the living and for the dead? 26 place on it high mountains and provide you with fresh water? 27 On that Day (of Judgment) woe would be upon those who have rejected God's revelations! 28 Depart to that which you belied! 29 Depart to a triple-massing shadow 30 "Neither shading, nor of any use against the fierce flame of the Fire." 31 which - behold! - will throw up sparks like [burning] logs, 32 sparks like to golden herds. 33 Woe that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)! 34 On that day they will not be able to speak, 35 Nor will it be open to them to put forth pleas. 36 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 37 This is the Day of Decision; We have gathered you and all the earlier men. 38 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). 39 The Day of Judgement. 40
