আল মুরসালাত

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 And the winds that blow violently

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

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

4 By those who winnow with a winnowing,

4 And those [angels] who bring criterion

5 By those who bring down the Reminder,

5 And those [angels] who deliver a message

6 To excuse or to warn,

6 As justification or warning,

7 Surely that which ye are promised will befall.

7 Indeed, what you are promised is to occur.

8 So when the stars are put out,

8 So when the stars are obliterated

9 And when the sky is riven asunder,

9 And when the heaven is opened

10 And when the mountains are blown away,

10 And when the mountains are blown away

11 And when the messengers are brought unto their time appointed -

11 And when the messengers' time has come...

12 For what day is the time appointed ?

12 For what Day was it postponed?

13 For the Day of Decision.

13 For the Day of Judgement.

14 And what will convey unto thee what the Day of Decision is! -

14 And what can make you know what is the Day of Judgement?

15 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

15 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

16 Destroyed We not the former folk,

16 Did We not destroy the former peoples?

17 Then caused the latter folk to follow after ?

17 Then We will follow them with the later ones.

18 Thus deal We ever with the guilty.

18 Thus do We deal with the criminals.

19 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

19 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

20 Did We not create you from a base fluid

20 Did We not create you from a liquid disdained?

21 Which We laid up in a safe abode

21 And We placed it in a firm lodging

22 For a known term ?

22 For a known extent.

23 Thus We arranged. How excellent is Our arranging!

23 And We determined [it], and excellent [are We] to determine.

24 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

24 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

25 Have We not made the earth a receptacle

25 Have We not made the earth a container

26 Both for the living and the dead,

26 Of the living and the dead?

27 And placed therein high mountains and given you to drink sweet water therein ?

27 And We placed therein lofty, firmly set mountains and have given you to drink sweet water.

28 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

28 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

29 (It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny;

29 [They will be told], "Proceed to that which you used to deny.

30 Depart unto the shadow falling threefold,

30 Proceed to a shadow [of smoke] having three columns

31 (Which yet is) no relief nor shelter from the flame.

31 [But having] no cool shade and availing not against the flame."

32 Lo! it throweth up sparks like the castles,

32 Indeed, it throws sparks [as huge] as a fortress,

33 (Or) as it might be camels of bright yellow hue.

33 As if they were yellowish [black] camels.

34 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

34 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

35 This is a day wherein they speak not,

35 This is a Day they will not speak,

36 Nor are they suffered to put forth excuses.

36 Nor will it be permitted for them to make an excuse.

37 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

37 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

38 This is the Day of Decision, We have brought you and the men of old together.

38 This is the Day of Judgement; We will have assembled you and the former peoples.

39 If now ye have any wit, outwit Me.

39 So if you have a plan, then plan against Me.

40 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

40 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

41 Lo! those who kept their duty are amid shade and fountains,

41 Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs

42 And fruits such as they desire.

42 And fruits from whatever they desire,

43 (Unto them it is said:) Eat, drink and welcome, O ye blessed, in return for what ye did.

43 [Being told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do."

44 Thus do We reward the good.

44 Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.

45 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

45 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

46 Eat and take your ease (on earth) a little. Lo! ye are guilty.

46 [O disbelievers], eat and enjoy yourselves a little; indeed, you are criminals.

47 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

47 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

48 When it is said unto them: Bow down, they bow not down!

48 And when it is said to them, "Bow [in prayer]," they do not bow.

49 Woe unto the repudiators on that day!

49 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

50 In what statement, after this, will they believe ?

50 Then in what statement after the Qur'an will they believe?
