Saheeh International

1 By those [winds] sent forth in gusts

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

2 And the winds that blow violently

Shakir

2 By the raging hurricanes,

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

3 Which scatter clouds to their destined places,

Saheeh International

4 And those [angels] who bring criterion

Shakir

4 Then separate them one from another,

Saheeh International

5 And those [angels] who deliver a message

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

6 As justification or warning,

Shakir

6 To clear or to warn.

Saheeh International

7 Indeed, what you are promised is to occur.

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

8 So when the stars are obliterated

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

9 And when the heaven is opened

Shakir

9 And when the heaven is rent asunder,

Saheeh International

10 And when the mountains are blown away

Shakir

10 And when the mountains are carried away as dust,

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

11 And when the apostles are gathered at their appointed time

Saheeh International

12 For what Day was it postponed?

13 To the day of decision.

Saheeh International

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

Saheeh International

15 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

Shakir

15 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Saheeh International

16 Did We not destroy the former peoples?

Shakir

16 Did We not destroy the former generations?

Saheeh International

17 Then We will follow them with the later ones.

Shakir

17 Then did We follow them up with later ones.

Saheeh International

21 And We placed it in a firm lodging

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

22 For a known extent.

Shakir

22 Till an appointed term,

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

24 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

Saheeh International

25 Have We not made the earth a container

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

26 Of the living and the dead?

Shakir

26 The living and the dead,

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

28 Woe, that Day, to the deniers.

Shakir

28 Woe on that day to the rejecters.

Saheeh International

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

30 Walk on to the covering having three branches,

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

32 Surely it sends up sparks like palaces,

Saheeh International

33 As if they were yellowish [black] camels.

Shakir

33 As if they were tawny camels.

Saheeh International

Saheeh International

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

Shakir

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

Saheeh International

Saheeh International

42 And fruits from whatever they desire,

Shakir

42 And fruits such as they desire.

Saheeh International
