77. Al-Mursalaat - Those sent forth
| 1 | By oath of those that are sent, one after the other. (The verses of the Holy Qur’an or the angels or the winds). |
| 2 | Then by oath of those that push with a strong gust. |
| 3 | Then by oath of those that lift and carry. |
| 4 | Then by those that clearly differentiate the right and wrong. |
| 5 | And then by those that instil Remembrance into the hearts. |
| 6 | To complete the argument or to warn. |
| 7 | Indeed what you are promised, will surely befall. |
| 8 | So when the lights of the stars are put out. |
| 9 | And when the sky is split apart. |
| 10 | And when the mountains are made into dust and blown away. |
| 11 | And when the time of the Noble Messengers arrives. |
| 12 | For which day were they appointed? |
| 13 | For the Day of Decision. |
| 14 | And what do you know, what the Day of Decision is! |
| 15 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 16 | Did We not destroy the earlier people? |
| 17 | We shall then send the latter after them. |
| 18 | This is how We deal with the guilty. |
| 19 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 20 | Did We not create you from an abject fluid? |
| 21 | We then kept it in a safe place. |
| 22 | For a known calculated term. |
| 23 | We then calculated; so how excellently do We control! |
| 24 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 25 | Did We not make the earth a storehouse? |
| 26 | For the living and the dead among you? |
| 27 | And We placed high mountains as anchors in it and gave you sweet water to drink. |
| 28 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 29 | “Move towards what you used to deny!” |
| 30 | “Move towards the shadow of the smoke having three branches.” |
| 31 | “Which neither gives shade, nor saves from the flame.” |
| 32 | Indeed hell throws up sparks like huge castles. |
| 33 | Seeming like yellow camels. |
| 34 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 35 | This is a day in which they will not be able to speak. |
| 36 | Nor will they be given permission to present excuses. |
| 37 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 38 | This is the Day of Decision; We have gathered you and all the earlier men. |
| 39 | If you now have any conspiracy, carry it out on Me. |
| 40 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 41 | Indeed the pious are in shade and springs. |
| 42 | And among fruits whichever they may desire. |
| 43 | “Eat and drink with pleasure, the reward of your deeds.” |
| 44 | This is how We reward the virtuous. |
| 45 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 46 | “Eat and enjoy for a while – indeed you are guilty.” |
| 47 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 48 | And when it is said to them, “Offer the prayer” – they do not! |
| 49 | Ruin is for the deniers on that day! |
| 50 | So after this, in what matter will they believe? |
