English - Chapter 77 - Al-Mursalat

By the emissary winds (sent forth) one after another

by the raging hurricanes

by (the winds) that scatter (the clouds) to distant places

then separate them one from another

by those (angels) who bring down the reminder (to the Messengers)

either to (remove all) excuses or to (covey the) warning

Surely, what you are promised must be fulfilled

(It will be fulfilled) when the stars will lose their light

when the heaven will cleft asunder

when the mountains will blow away (into dust)

when the Messengers will be gathered to their appointed time

For what Day are these signs deferred

For the Day of sorting out (judgment)

What will make you know, what is the Day of sorting out

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

Did We not destroy the previous generations (for evil deeds)

Then We shall make later generations to follow them

Thus We will deal with the criminals

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

Have We not created you from a worthless fluid (semen)

which We placed in a place of safety (womb)

for a known period

So We have measured (its term) and We are the best to measure (things)

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

Have We not made the earth a home for both

the living and the dead

placed on it firm, tall and high mountains, and given you sweet water to drink

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

(It will be said to the disbelievers on the Day of Judgment): “You depart to that (hell) which you used to deny

You depart towards the shadow (of hellfire smoke ascending) in 3 columns

neither shady nor of any use against the fierce flame of the fire

surely! it (hell) throws up huge sparks like a castle

as if they were yellow camels.”

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

That will be the Day when they shall not be able to speak

they will not be permitted to put forth any excuse for them

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

Such will be the Day of decision! We will bring you and your previous generations together

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

Surely, the pious shall reside in shades and springs

and they will have whatever fruits they desire

(It will be said to them): “Eat and drink comfortably for that which you used to do (good deeds).”

Surely, thus We will reward the righteous

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

(O disbelievers)! Eat and enjoy yourselves (in this worldly life) for a little while. Surely, you are the criminals

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

When it is said to them: “Bow down yourself (in prayer before Allah)!” They don’t bow down

Woe on that Day to the deniers (of the Day of Resurrection)

Then in what statement after this (the Qur’an), will they believe
