| | N J Dawood (2014) rendition of Surah The Emissaries, Winds Sent Forth(al-Mursalat)
--- |
|---|
| 77:1 | | BY THE gales, sent forth in swift succession |
| 77:2 | | by the raging tempest |
| 77:3 | | and the rain-spreading winds |
| 77:4 | | by those that send down the revelation |
| 77:5 | | discerning good from evi |
| 77:6 | | and admonishing by plea and warning |
| 77:7 | | that which you are promised shall be fulfilled |
| 77:8 | | When the stars are blotted out |
| 77:9 | | when the sky is rent asunde |
| 77:10 | | and the mountains crumble into dust |
| 77:11 | | when the apostles are brought together on the appointed day ― |
| 77:12 | | when will all this be |
| 77:13 | | Upon the Day of Judgement |
| 77:14 | | Would that you knew what the Day of Judgement is |
| 77:15 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:16 | | Did We not obliterate the early generation |
| 77:17 | | and cause the latter ones to follow them |
| 77:18 | | Thus shall We deal with the transgressors |
| 77:19 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:20 | | Did We not create you from a humble fluid |
| 77:21 | | which We kept in a safe receptacle¹ |
| 77:22 | | for an appointed term |
| 77:23 | | All this We did; how excellent is Our work |
| 77:24 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:25 | | Have We not made the earth an abod |
| 77:26 | | for the living and for the dead |
| 77:27 | | Have We not placed lofty mountains upon it, and given you fresh water for your drink |
| 77:28 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:29 | | Begone to that which you deny |
| 77:30 | | Depart into the shadow that will rise high in three columns |
| 77:31 | | giving neither shade nor shelter from the flames |
| 77:32 | | and throwing up sparks as huge as towers |
| 77:33 | | as bright as yellow camels |
| 77:34 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:35 | | On that day they shall not speak |
| 77:36 | | nor shall their pleas be heeded |
| 77:37 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:38 | | Such is the Day of Judgement. We will herd you all, together with past generations |
| 77:39 | | If then you are cunning, try your spite against Me |
| 77:40 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:41 | | The righteous shall dwell amidst cool shades and fountains |
| 77:42 | | and feed on such fruits as they desire |
| 77:43 | | Eat and drink, and may every joy attend you |
| 77:44 | | This is the guerdon of your labours.‘ Thus shall We recompense the righteous |
| 77:45 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:46 | | Eat and enjoy yourselves awhile. Surely you are sinners all |
| 77:47 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:48 | | If they are bidden to kneel down, they do not kneel |
| 77:49 | | On that day woe betide the disbelievers |
| 77:50 | | In what revelation, after this, will they believe |
