1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the emissary winds, (sent) one after another

1 By those [winds] sent forth in gusts

2 By the raging hurricanes,

2 By the raging hurricanes,

2 And the winds that blow violently

3 Which scatter clouds to their destined places,

3 By those which cause earth's vegetation to revive;

3 And [by] the winds that spread [clouds]

4 Then separate them one from another,

4 By those who winnow with a winnowing,

4 And those [angels] who bring criterion

5 Then I swear by the angels who bring down the revelation,

5 By those who bring down the Reminder,

5 And those [angels] who deliver a message
