Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
By the winds which scatter dust, 1 And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water] 2 then the easy runners (the ships); 3 And those who distribute (it) by command, 4 Lo! that wherewith ye are threatened is indeed true, 5 the Judgement will surely come to pass -- 6 And by oath of the decorated heaven. 7 surely you speak at variance, 8 Deluded away from the Qur'an is he who is deluded. 9 Woe to the liars 10 Who are lost in deception. 11 They ask, "When is the Day of Recompense?" 12 (It will be) a Day when they will be tried (i.e. burnt) over the Fire! 13 Taste your persecution! this is what you would hasten on. 14 Verily the God-fearing will be amid Gardens and water-springs. 15 Taking joy in the things which their Lord has given them. Verily, they were before this Muhsinun (good-doers - see V. 2:112). 16 sleeping little in the night-time, 17 And in the morning they asked forgiveness. 18 In whose wealth the suppliant and the deprived had a share. 19 And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith] 20 And also in your ownselves. Will you not then see? 21 And in heaven is [the source of] your sustenance [on earth] and [of] all that you are promised [for your life after death]: 22 So, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, this is certainly true, as true as the fact of your speaking. 23
