Dispatched (Al-Mursalaat)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit); 1 by (the angels) as swift as blowing winds, 2 and by the scatterers scattering (rain) 3 then winnow them thoroughly, 4 Then spread abroad a Message, 5 By way of excuse or warning. 6 Indeed what you are promised, will surely befall. 7 When the stars lose their light, 8 when heaven shall be split 9 and when the mountains are scattered like dust, 10 And when the apostles are collected at the appointed time, 11 for what Day has this been appointed? 12 For the Day of Judgement. 13 What do you know what the Day of Judgement is? 14 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 15 Did We not destroy many a nation of the earlier times? 16 We shall then send the latter after them. 17 Thus do We deal with the criminals. 18 Woe on that day unto the beliers! 19 Did We not create you from a humble fluid, 20 then placed it in a secure repository [the womb], 21 Till a limit known? 22 For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things). 23 Ah woe, that Day! to the Rejecters of Truth! 24 Made We not the earth to be a housing 25 The living and the dead, 26 And placed therein high mountains and given you to drink sweet water therein? 27 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth! 28 Depart to that which you belied! 29 Walk on to the covering having three branches, 30 that will offer no [cooling] shade and will be of no avail against the flame 31 It will throw out sparks as logs of wood 32 which seem as though they are yellow-coloured camels. 33 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 34 That will be a Day when they shall not be able to speak. 35 And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses. 36 Ruin is for the deniers on that day! 37 This is the Day of Judgement. We have assembled you all together with past generations. 38 and if you [think that you] have a subterfuge left, try to outwit Me!" 39 Woe on that Day unto those who give the lie to the truth! 40
