Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
By the (winds) sent forth in quick succession, 1 And those raging swiftly; 2 And [by] the winds that spread [clouds] 3 separating one from another, 4 and by those who reveal revelations (to the prophets) 5 To clear or to warn. 6 Indeed, what you are promised is to occur. 7 When the stars are extinguished, 8 And when the heaven is rent asunder, 9 The mountains reduced to dust and blown away, 10 And when the Messengers are gathered to their time appointed; 11 to what day shall they be delayed? 12 The Day of Judgement. 13 And what will convey unto thee what the Day of Decision is! - 14 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 15 Did We not destroy many a nation of the earlier times? 16 and then follow them with the later folk? 17 thus do We deal with the culprits. 18 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 19 Did We not create you from an abject fluid? 20 And We placed it in a firm lodging 21 For a period (of gestation), determined (according to need)? 22 And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine. 23 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 24 Did We not make the earth a receptacle, 25 for both the living and the dead? 26 Have We not placed high mountains upon it and filled you with sweet water? 27 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 28 Proceed now towards that which you were wont to deny as false; 29 proceed towards the three-pronged shadow, 30 Neither shading nor availing against the flame. 31 "Indeed it throws about sparks (huge) as Forts, 32 as black camels. 33 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth 34 That will be a Day when they shall not be able to speak. 35 nor will they be allowed to proffer excuses. 36 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 37 This is the Day of Decision; We have gathered you and all the earlier men. 38 So if you have a plot, use it against Me (Allah)! 39 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 40
