Drivers of the Winds (Al-Dhaareyaat)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
I swear by the wind that scatters far and wide, 1 Then by oath of those which carry the burdens. 2 and those speeding along with ease, 3 And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter, 4 Verily that which ye are promised is true; 5 and the Judgement shall doubtlessly take place. 6 And by oath of the decorated heaven. 7 You are surely caught in contradictions., 8 though only those who are averse to the Truth will turn away from (believing in it). 9 Destroyed are the falsifiers 10 they who blunder along, in ignorance lost 11 They ask, "When it will be the Day of Judgment?" 12 The day they will be burnt in the Fire, 13 "Taste you your trial (burning)! This is what you used to ask to be hastened!" 14 The righteous shall live among gardens and fountains, 15 receiving what their Lord will give them because before this they were gooddoers. 16 They used to sleep only a little during the night. 17 And in the hour of early dawn, they (were found) praying for Forgiveness; 18 and sharing their possessions with the beggars and the deprived. 19 On the earth, and in yourselves, 20 And (also) in yourselves. Can ye then not see? 21 And in heaven is your provision, and that you are promised. 22 Then, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, it is the truth (i.e. what has been promised to you), just as it is the truth that you can speak. 23
