Al Mursalat

Shakir

1 I swear by the emissary winds, sent one after another (for men's benefit),

Shakir

2 By the raging hurricanes,

Shakir

3 Which scatter clouds to their destined places,

Shakir

4 Then separate them one from another,

Shakir

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

Shakir

6 To clear or to warn.

Shakir

7 Most surely what you are threatened with must come to pass.

Shakir

8 So when the stars are made to lose their light,

Shakir

9 And when the heaven is rent asunder,

Shakir

10 And when the mountains are carried away as dust,

Shakir

11 And when the apostles are gathered at their appointed time

Shakir

12 To what day is the doom fixed?

Shakir

13 To the day of decision.

Shakir

14 And what will make you comprehend what the day of decision is?

Shakir

15 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

16 Did We not destroy the former generations?

Shakir

17 Then did We follow them up with later ones.

Shakir

18 Even thus shall We deal with the guilty.

Shakir

19 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

20 Did We not create you from contemptible water?

Shakir

21 Then We placed it in a secure resting - place,

Shakir

22 Till an appointed term,

Shakir

23 So We proportion it - - how well are We at proportioning (things).

Shakir

24 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

25 Have We not made the earth to draw together to itself,

Shakir

26 The living and the dead,

Shakir

27 And made therein lofty mountains, and given you to drink of sweet water?

Shakir

28 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

29 Walk on to that which you called a lie.

Shakir

30 Walk on to the covering having three branches,

Shakir

31 Neither having the coolness of the shade nor availing against the flame.

Shakir

32 Surely it sends up sparks like palaces,

Shakir

33 As if they were tawny camels.

Shakir

34 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

35 This is the day on which they shall not speak,

Shakir

36 And permission shall not be given to them so that they should offer excuses.

Shakir

37 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

38 This is the day of decision: We have gathered you and those of yore.

Shakir

39 So if you have a plan, plan against Me (now).

Shakir

40 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

41 Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be amid shades and fountains,

Shakir

42 And fruits such as they desire.

Shakir

43 Eat and drink pleasantly because of what you did.

Shakir

44 Surely thus do We reward the doers of good.

Shakir

45 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

46 Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little; surely you are guilty.

Shakir

47 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

48 And where it is said to them: Bow down, they do not bow down.

Shakir

49 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Shakir

50 In what announcement, then, after it, will they believe?
