وَٱلْمُرْسَلَٰتِ عُرْفًۭا ﴿١﴾
By the emissary winds, (sent) one after another
فَٱلْعَٰصِفَٰتِ عَصْفًۭا ﴿٢﴾
By the raging hurricanes,
وَٱلنَّٰشِرَٰتِ نَشْرًۭا ﴿٣﴾
By those which cause earth's vegetation to revive;
فَٱلْفَٰرِقَٰتِ فَرْقًۭا ﴿٤﴾
By those who winnow with a winnowing,
فَٱلْمُلْقِيَٰتِ ذِكْرًا ﴿٥﴾
By those who bring down the Reminder,
عُذْرًا أَوْ نُذْرًا ﴿٦﴾
To excuse or to warn,
إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَوَٰقِعٌۭ ﴿٧﴾
Surely that which ye are promised will befall.
فَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ طُمِسَتْ ﴿٨﴾
So when the stars are put out,
وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ فُرِجَتْ ﴿٩﴾

And when the mountains are blown away,
وَإِذَا ٱلرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَتْ ﴿١١﴾
And when the messengers are brought unto their time appointed -
لِأَىِّ يَوْمٍ أُجِّلَتْ ﴿١٢﴾
For what day is the time appointed?
لِيَوْمِ ٱلْفَصْلِ ﴿١٣﴾
For the Day of Decision.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا يَوْمُ ٱلْفَصْلِ ﴿١٤﴾

Woe unto the repudiators on that day!
أَلَمْ نُهْلِكِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ﴿١٦﴾
Destroyed We not the former folk,
ثُمَّ نُتْبِعُهُمُ ٱلْءَاخِرِينَ ﴿١٧﴾
Then caused the latter folk to follow after?
كَذَٰلِكَ نَفْعَلُ بِٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ ﴿١٨﴾
Thus deal We ever with the guilty.

Which We laid up in a safe abode
إِلَىٰ قَدَرٍۢ مَّعْلُومٍۢ ﴿٢٢﴾

Have We not made the earth a receptacle
أَحْيَآءًۭ وَأَمْوَٰتًۭا ﴿٢٦﴾
Both for the living and the dead,
وَجَعَلْنَا فِيهَا رَوَٰسِىَ شَٰمِخَٰتٍۢ وَأَسْقَيْنَٰكُم مَّآءًۭ فُرَاتًۭا ﴿٢٧﴾
And placed therein high mountains and given you to drink sweet water therein?
وَيْلٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ﴿٢٨﴾

(It will be said unto them:) Depart unto that (doom) which ye used to deny;
ٱنطَلِقُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ ظِلٍّۢ ذِى ثَلَٰثِ شُعَبٍۢ ﴿٣٠﴾
Depart unto the shadow falling threefold,
لَّا ظَلِيلٍۢ وَلَا يُغْنِى مِنَ ٱللَّهَبِ ﴿٣١﴾
(Which yet is) no relief nor shelter from the flame.
إِنَّهَا تَرْمِى بِشَرَرٍۢ كَٱلْقَصْرِ ﴿٣٢﴾
Lo! it throweth up sparks like the castles,
كَأَنَّهُۥ جِمَٰلَتٌۭ صُفْرٌۭ ﴿٣٣﴾
(Or) as it might be camels of bright yellow hue.
وَيْلٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ لِّلْمُكَذِّبِينَ ﴿٣٤﴾

هَٰذَا يَوْمُ لَا يَنطِقُونَ ﴿٣٥﴾

وَلَا يُؤْذَنُ لَهُمْ فَيَعْتَذِرُونَ ﴿٣٦﴾
Nor are they suffered to put forth excuses.

وَفَوَٰكِهَ مِمَّا يَشْتَهُونَ ﴿٤٢﴾
And fruits such as they desire.
كُلُوا۟ وَٱشْرَبُوا۟ هَنِيٓـًٔۢا بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿٤٣﴾
(Unto them it is said:) Eat, drink and welcome, O ye blessed, in return for what ye did.
إِنَّا كَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ﴿٤٤﴾
Thus do We reward the good.
