> Surah 77
> 
> Al Mursalat (Those Sent Forth)
> 
> In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
> 
> 1.  By the (Winds) Sent Forth one after another (to man's profit);
> 
> 2.  Which then blow violently in tempestuous Gusts,
> 
> 3.  And scatter (things) far and wide;
> 
> 4.  Then separate them, one from another,
> 
> 5.  Then spread abroad a Message,
> 
> 6.  Whether of Justification or of Warning--
> 
> 7.  Assuredly, what ye are promised must come to pass.
> 
> 8.  Then when the stars become dim;
> 
> 9.  When the heaven is cleft asunder;
> 
> 10.  When the mountains are scattered (to the winds) as dust;
> 
> 11.  And when the messengers are (all) appointed a time (to collect)--
> 
> 12.  For what Day are these (Portents) deferred?
> 
> 13.  For the Day of Sorting out.
> 
> 14.  And what will explain to thee what is the Day of Sorting out?
> 
> 15.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 16.  Did We not destroy the men of old (for their evil)?
> 
> 17.  So shall We make later (generations) follow them.
> 
> 18.  Thus do We deal with men of sin.
> 
> 19.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 20.  Have We not created you from a fluid (held) despicable?--
> 
> 21.  The which We placed in a place of rest, firmly fixed.
> 
> 22.  For a period (of gestation), determined (according to need)?
> 
> 23.  For We do determine (according to need); for We are the Best to determine (things)!
> 
> 24.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 25.  Have We not made the earth (as a place) to draw together
> 
> 26.  The living and the dead,
> 
> 27.  And made therein mountains standing firm, lofty (in stature); and provided for you water sweet (and wholesome)?
> 
> 28.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 29.  (It will be said:) "Depart ye to that which ye used to reject as
>  false!
> 
> 30.  "Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns,
> 
> 31.  "(Which yields) no shade of coolness, and is of no use against the fierce Blaze.
> 
> 32.  "Indeed it throws about sparks (huge) as Forts,
> 
> 33.  "As if there were (a string of) yellow camels (marching swiftly)."
> 
> 34.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 35.  That will be a Day when they shall not be able to speak,
> 
> 36.  Nor will it be open to them to put forth pleas.
> 
> 37.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 38.  That will be a Day of Sorting out!  We shall Gather you together and those before (you)!
> 
> 39.  Now, if ye have a trick (or plot), use it against Me!
> 
> 40.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 41.  As to the Righteous, they shall be amidst (cool) shades and springs (of water).
> 
> 42.  And (they shall have) fruits, all they desire.
> 
> 43.  "Eat ye and drink ye to your heart's content: for that ye worked (Righteousness)."
> 
> 44.  Thus do We certainly reward the Doers of Good.
> 
> 45.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 46.  (O ye Unjust!)  Eat ye and enjoy yourselves (but) a little while, for that ye are Sinners.
> 
> 47.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of Truth!
> 
> 48.  And when it is said to them, "Prostrate yourselves!"  They do not so.
> 
> 49.  Ah woe, that Day, to the Rejecters of truth!
> 
> 50.  Then what Message, after that, will they believe in?
