English - Chapter 77 - Al-Mursalat

(I swear) by those (winds) that are sent one after the other

and by those that blow violently

and by those that spread (clouds) all over

and by those (angels) who differentiate (between right and wrong) distinctly

then bring down the advice

leaving no excuse (for the disbelievers) or giving warnings

that which you are promised is sure to happen

So, when the stars will be extinguished

and when the sky will be split

and when the mountains will be blown away as dust

and when the messengers will be assembled at the appointed time, (then all matters will be decided)

(Do you know) for which day has all this been delayed

For the Day of Decision

And what may let you know what the Day of Decision is

Woe that Day to the deniers

Did We not destroy the earlier people

Then We will cause the later ones to follow them

Thus We deal with the guilty people

Woe that Day to the deniers

Did We not create you from a worthless fluid

Then We put it in a firm place of rest

for a known period

Thus We did (all this with perfect) measure; so We are the best to measure

Woe that Day to the deniers

Did We not make the earth a container that collects

the living and the dead

And We placed towering mountains therein, and provided you with sweet water to drink

Woe that Day to the deniers

(It will be said to them on that day,) .Push on to what you used to deny

Push on to a canopy (of Hell‘s smoke) having three branches

that neither has a comfortable shade, nor is it of any use against the scorching heat

It emits sparks (as huge) as castles

as if they were yellowish camels

Woe that Day to the deniers

This is the day when they will not speak

nor will they be allowed to offer excuses

Woe that Day to the deniers

(It will be said to them,) .This is the Day of Decision. We have assembled you and the earlier ones together

Now, if you have a trick, use the trick against Me

Woe that Day to the deniers

Of course, the God-fearing will be amid shades and streams

It will be said to them, .Eat and drink with pleasure because of what you used to do

This is how We reward those who do good deeds

Woe that Day to the deniers

(O disbelievers,) eat and drink for a while! You are guilty ones

Woe that Day to the deniers

And when it is said to them, .Bow down (i.e. submit to Allah‘s commands)., they do not bow down

Woe that Day to the deniers

Now, in which discourse, after this, will they believe
