Surah Al-Mursalat

وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًا ۝١

By the winds sent forth in swift succession,

فَٱلْعَٰصِفَٰتِ عَصْفًا ۝٢

and then storming on with a tempest's force,

وَٱلنَّٰشِرَٰتِ نَشْرًا ۝٣

and the rain-spreading winds,

فَٱلْفَٰرِقَٰتِ فَرْقًا ۝٤

separating one from another,

فَٱلْمُلْقِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا ۝٥

by those who bring down the reminder,

عُذْرًا أَوْ نُذْرًا ۝٦

to excuse some and warn others:

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَٰقِعٌ ۝٧

that which you have been promised shall be fulfilled.

فَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ طُمِسَتْ ۝٨

When the stars lose their light,

وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ فُرِجَتْ ۝٩

and when the sky is rent asunder,

وَإِذَا ٱلْجِبَالُ نُسِفَتْ ۝١٠

and when the mountains crumble into dust

وَإِذَا ٱلرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتْ ۝١١

and when the messengers are brought together at the appointed time --

لِأَىِّ يَوْمٍ أُجِّلَتْ ۝١٢

for what Day has this been appointed?

لِيَوْمِ ٱلْفَصْلِ ۝١٣

For the Day of Decision.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ۝١٤

What will explain to you what the Day of Judgement is?

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝١٥

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth.

أَلَمْ نُهْلِكِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝١٦

Did We not destroy the earlier peoples?

ثُمَّ نُتْبِعُهُمُ ٱلْـَٔاخِرِينَ ۝١٧

We will now cause the later ones to follow them:

كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ ۝١٨

thus do We deal with the culprits.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝١٩

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

أَلَمْ نَخْلُقكُّم مِّن مَّآءٍ مَّهِينٍ ۝٢٠

Did We not create you from a humble fluid,

فَجَعَلْنَٰهُ فِى قَرَارٍ مَّكِينٍ ۝٢١

then placed it in a secure repository [the womb],

إِلَىٰ قَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ ۝٢٢

for an appointed term?

فَقَدَرْنَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْقَٰدِرُونَ ۝٢٣

Thus We have determined the stages of development and Our power to determine is excellent indeed.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٢٤

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ كِفَاتًا ۝٢٥

Have We not made the earth a receptacle,

أَحْيَآءً وَأَمْوَٰتًا ۝٢٦

for the living and the dead?

وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ شَٰمِخَٰتٍ وَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُم مَّآءً فُرَاتًا ۝٢٧

Have We not placed high mountains upon it and given you fresh water to drink?

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٢٨

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ مَا كُنتُم بِهِۦ تُكَذِّبُونَ ۝٢٩

Proceed to that which you denied.

ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّ ذِى ثَلَٰثِ شُعَبٍ ۝٣٠

Proceed to a shadow rising in three columns:

لَّا ظَلِيلٍ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ ۝٣١

affording neither shade, nor protection from the flames,

إِنَّهَا تَرْمِى بِشَرَرٍ كَٱلْقَصْرِ ۝٣٢

and throwing up sparks as huge as towers

كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَٰلَتٌ صُفْرٌ ۝٣٣

and as bright as a herd of yellow camels.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٣٤

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

هَٰذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ ۝٣٥

On that Day they will be speechless,

وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ ۝٣٦

nor shall they be permitted to offer excuses.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٣٧

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

هَٰذَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ۖ جَمَعْنَٰكُمْ وَٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ۝٣٨

This is the Day of Judgement. We have assembled you all together with past generations.

فَإِن كَانَ لَكُمْ كَيْدٌ فَكِيدُونِ ۝٣٩

If now you have any strategy, use it against Me.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٤٠

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى ظِلَٰلٍ وَعُيُونٍ ۝٤١

The righteous shall dwell amidst cool shades and fountains,

وَفَوَٰكِهَ مِمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ۝٤٢

and shall have fruits such as they desire;

كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ۝٤٣

[They will be told], "Eat and drink with relish in return for what you did [in life]:

إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ۝٤٤

this is how We reward those who do good."

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٤٥

[But] woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

كُلُوا۟ وَتَمَتَّعُوا۟ قَلِيلًا إِنَّكُم مُّجْرِمُونَ ۝٤٦

Eat [your fill] and enjoy your life for a little while, O you who are lost in sin.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٤٧

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ ٱرْكَعُوا۟ لَا يَرْكَعُونَ ۝٤٨

When they are bidden to bow down, they do not bow down.

وَيْلٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ۝٤٩

Woe on that Day to those who reject the truth!

فَبِأَىِّ حَدِيثٍۭ بَعْدَهُۥ يُؤْمِنُونَ ۝٥٠

In which word then, after this, will they believe?
