Al Mursalat

Yusuf Ali

1 By the (Winds) sent forth one after another (to man's profit);

Yusuf Ali

2 Which then blow violently in tempestuous Gusts,

Yusuf Ali

3 And scatter (things) far and wide;

Yusuf Ali

4 Then separate them, one from another,

Yusuf Ali

5 Then spread abroad a Message,

Yusuf Ali

6 Whether of Justification or of Warning; -

Yusuf Ali

7 Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass.

Yusuf Ali

8 Then when the stars become dim;

Yusuf Ali

9 When the heaven is cleft asunder;

Yusuf Ali

10 When the mountains are scattered (to the winds) as dust;

Yusuf Ali

11 And when the messengers are (all) appointed a time (to collect); -

Yusuf Ali

12 For what Day are these (portents) deferred?

Yusuf Ali

13 For the Day of Sorting out.

Yusuf Ali

14 And what will explain to thee what is the Day of Sorting out?

Yusuf Ali

15 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

16 Did We not destroy the men of old (for their evil)?

Yusuf Ali

17 So shall We make later (generations) follow them.

Yusuf Ali

18 Thus do We deal with men of sin.

Yusuf Ali

19 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

20 Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable? -

Yusuf Ali

21 The which We placed in a place of rest, firmly fixed,

Yusuf Ali

22 For a period (of gestation), determined (according to need)?

Yusuf Ali

23 For We do determine (according to need); for We are the best to determine (things).

Yusuf Ali

24 Ah woe, that Day! to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

25 Have We not made the earth (as a place) to draw together.

Yusuf Ali

26 The living and the dead,

Yusuf Ali

27 And made therein mountains standing firm, lofty (in stature); and provided for you water sweet (and wholesome)?

Yusuf Ali

28 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

29 (It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as false!

Yusuf Ali

30 "Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns,

Yusuf Ali

31 "(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze.

Yusuf Ali

32 "Indeed it throws about sparks (huge) as Forts,

Yusuf Ali

33 "As if there were (a string of) yellow camels (marching swiftly)."

Yusuf Ali

34 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

35 That will be a Day when they shall not be able to speak.

Yusuf Ali

36 Nor will it be open to them to put forth pleas.

Yusuf Ali

37 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

38 That will be a Day of Sorting out! We shall gather you together and those before (you)!

Yusuf Ali

39 Now, if ye have a trick (or plot), use it against Me!

Yusuf Ali

40 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

41 As to the Righteous, they shall be amidst (cool) shades and springs (of water).

Yusuf Ali

42 And (they shall have) fruits, - all they desire.

Yusuf Ali

43 "Eat ye and drink ye to your heart's content: for that ye worked (Righteousness).

Yusuf Ali

44 Thus do We certainly reward the Doers of Good.

Yusuf Ali

45 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

46 (O ye unjust!) Eat ye and enjoy yourselves (but) a little while, for that ye are Sinners.

Yusuf Ali

47 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

48 And when it is said to them, "Prostrate yourselves!" they do not so.

Yusuf Ali

49 Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!

Yusuf Ali

50 Then what Message, after that, will they believe in?
