Al-Mursalaat -- The Emissaries

وَٱلۡمُرۡسَلَٰتِ عُرۡفࣰ ا

By those [winds] sent forth in gusts

فَٱلۡعَٰصِفَٰتِ عَصۡفࣰ ا

And the winds that blow violently

وَٱلنَّٰشِرَٰتِ نَشۡرࣰ ا

And [by] the winds that spread [clouds]

فَٱلۡفَٰرِقَٰتِ فَرۡقࣰ ا

And those [angels] who bring criterion

فَٱلۡمُلۡقِيَٰتِ ذِكۡرًا

And those [angels] who deliver a message

عُذۡرًا أَوۡ نُذۡرًا

As justification or warning

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَٰقِعࣱ‏

Indeed, what you are promised is to occur

فَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ طُمِسَتۡ

So when the stars are obliterated

وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ فُرِجَتۡ

And when the heaven is opened

وَإِذَا ٱلۡجِبَالُ نُسِفَتۡ

And when the mountains are blown away

وَإِذَا ٱلرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتۡ

And when the messengers' time has come

لِأَيِّ يَوۡمٍ أُجِّلَتۡ

For what Day was it postponed

لِيَوۡمِ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ

For the Day of Judgement

وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا يَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ

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

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

أَلَمۡ نُهۡلِكِ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

Did We not destroy the former peoples

ثُمَّ نُتۡبِعُهُمُ ٱلۡأٓخِرِينَ

Then We will follow them with the later ones

كَذَٰلِكَ نَفۡعَلُ بِٱلۡمُجۡرِمِينَ

Thus do We deal with the criminals

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

أَلَمۡ نَخۡلُقكُّم مِّن مَّآءࣲ مَّهِينࣲ‏

Did We not create you from a liquid disdained

فَجَعَلۡنَٰهُ فِي قَرَارࣲ مَّكِينٍ

And We placed it in a firm lodging

إِلَىٰ قَدَرࣲ مَّعۡلُومࣲ‏

For a known extent

فَقَدَرۡنَا فَنِعۡمَ ٱلۡقَٰدِرُونَ

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

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

أَلَمۡ نَجۡعَلِ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ كِفَاتًا

Have We not made the earth a container

أَحۡيَآءࣰ وَأَمۡوَٰتࣰ ا

Of the living and the dead

وَجَعَلۡنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِيَ شَٰمِخَٰتࣲ وَأَسۡقَيۡنَٰكُم مَّآءࣰ فُرَاتࣰ ا

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

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

ٱنطَلِقُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ

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

ٱنطَلِقُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ ظِلࣲّ ذِي ثَلَٰثِ شُعَبࣲ‏

Proceed to a shadow [of smoke] having three columns

لَّا ظَلِيلࣲ وَلَا يُغۡنِي مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ

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

إِنَّهَا تَرۡمِي بِشَرَرࣲ كَٱلۡقَصۡرِ

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

كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَٰلَتࣱ صُفۡرࣱ‏

As if they were yellowish [black] camels

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

هَٰذَا يَوۡمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ

This is a Day they will not speak

وَلَا يُؤۡذَنُ لَهُمۡ فَيَعۡتَذِرُونَ

Nor will it be permitted for them to make an excuse

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

هَٰذَا يَوۡمُ ٱلۡفَصۡلِۖ جَمَعۡنَٰكُمۡ وَٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

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

فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمۡ كَيۡدࣱ فَكِيدُونِ

So if you have a plan, then plan against Me

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

إِنَّ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ فِي ظِلَٰلࣲ وَعُيُونࣲ‏

Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs

وَفَوَٰكِهَ مِمَّا يَشۡتَهُونَ

And fruits from whatever they desire

كُلُواْ وَٱشۡرَبُواْ هَنِيٓـَٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ

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

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجۡزِي ٱلۡمُحۡسِنِينَ

Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

كُلُواْ وَتَمَتَّعُواْ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُم مُّجۡرِمُونَ

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱرۡكَعُواْ لَا يَرۡكَعُونَ

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

وَيۡلࣱ يَوۡمَئِذࣲ لِّلۡمُكَذِّبِينَ

Woe, that Day, to the deniers

فَبِأَيِّ حَدِيثِۭ بَعۡدَهُۥ يُؤۡمِنُونَ

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