Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By (the angels) sent forth with the commands of God, 1 Then by oath of those that push with a strong gust. 2 And by the winds that scatter clouds and rain; 3 thus separating [right and wrong] with all clarity, 4 and then giving forth a reminder, 5 To complete the argument or to warn. 6 that which you have been promised shall be fulfilled. 7 Then when the stars lose their lights; 8 When the heaven is cleft asunder; 9 and the mountains are blown away, 10 And when the messengers are (all) appointed a time (to collect);- 11 They will not be able to speak that day, 12 For the Day of Decision. 13 And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is? 14 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 15 Have We not destroyed the earlier generations? 16 So shall We make the later ones to follow them. 17 That is what We shall do to those who are guilty of crime. 18 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 19 Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?- 20 We then kept it in a safe place. 21 For a known calculated term. 22 Then We facilitated your birth. How well do We calculate! 23 Woe unto the repudiators on that day! 24 Did We not make the earth a storehouse? 25 For the living and the dead, 26 And have placed therein firm, and tall mountains; and have given you to drink sweet water? 27 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 28 Depart to that which you belied! 29 Proceed to a shadow rising in three columns: 30 "(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze. 31 It will throw out sparks as logs of wood 32 as black camels. 33 Woe, that Day, to the deniers. 34 This is the day on which they shall not speak, 35 And they will not be permitted to put forth any excuse. 36 Woe on that Day to those who belied it! 37 This is the Day of Decision, We have brought you and the men of old together. 38 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). 39 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 40
