Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the (winds) sent forth in quick succession, 1 which then blow tempestuously 2 Which scatter clouds to their destined places, 3 thus separating [right and wrong] with all clarity, 4 Then spread abroad a Message, 5 to provide excuses for some and to give warnings to others: 6 Indeed, what you are promised is to occur. 7 Then the stars will lose their light. 8 And when the heaven is rent asunder, 9 And when the mountains are blown away, 10 and when the Messengers' time is set, 11 For what day is the time appointed? 12 For the Day of Decision. 13 And what will explain to thee what is the Day of Sorting out? 14 Woe on that day unto the beliers 15 So if you have any plot to devise against Me, then devise it. 16 and make others settle after them in their land? 17 As such shall We deal with the sinners. 18 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 19 Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?- 20 and place it in a secure place 21 For a certain appointed time, 22 Thus did We Plan and how excellent is Our planning! 23 Woe, on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 24 Did We not make the earth a storehouse? 25 For the living and the dead, 26 And placed in it lofty and broad stablisers, and gave you sweet water to drink? 27 Woe that day unto those who cry it lies! 28 Depart to that which you belied! 29 Depart unto the shadow three branched: 30 affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames, 31 Lo! it throweth up sparks like the castles, 32 (Or) as it might be camels of bright yellow hue. 33 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 34 On that day they will not be able to speak, 35 And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses. 36 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 37 'This is the Day of Decision; We have joined you with the ancients; 38 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). 39 Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! 40
