Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit); 1 And the winds that blow violently 2 and raise (clouds) and scatter them around, 3 Then separate them one from another, 4 Then spread abroad a Message, 5 [promising] freedom from blame or [offering] a warning! 6 Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass. 7 So when the stars are made to lose their light, 8 And when the sky is split apart. 9 And when the mountains are carried away by wind. 10 And when the messengers' time has come... 11 For what day has the term [of all this] been set? 12 Upon the Day of Decision! 13 And what will explain to you what is the Day of sorting out? 14 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 15 Destroyed We not the ancients? 16 So shall We make the later ones to follow them. 17 Even thus shall We deal with the guilty. 18 Woe on that day to the rejecters. 19 Did We not create you out of a humble fluid 20 Then We placed it in a secure resting-place, 21 Till a limit known? 22 Then We facilitated (your birth). How well do We calculate! 23 Ah woe, that Day! to the Rejecters of Truth! 24 Have We not made the earth a receptacle 25 Both for the living and the dead, 26 Set We not therein soaring mountains? Sated you with sweetest water? 27 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 28 [They will be told], "Proceed to that which you used to deny. 29 Proceed to that shadow, rising in three columns 30 Neither shading nor availing against the flame. 31 Surely it sends up sparks like palaces, 32 and as bright as a herd of yellow camels. 33 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 34 They will not be able to speak that day, 35 nor shall they be permitted to offer excuses. 36 On that day, woe would be those who have rejected God's revelations! 37 This is the Day of Judgement. We have assembled you all together with past generations. 38 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now). 39 Alas the woe that day for those who deny! 40
