Surah 77 of 114
سُوْرَةُ الْمُرْسَلَاتِ
Al-Mursalaat
The Emissaries
By those ˹winds˺ sent forth successively
and those blowing violently
and those scattering ˹rainclouds˺ widely
And ˹by˺ those ˹angels˺ fully distinguishing ˹truth from falsehood˺
and those delivering revelation
ending excuses and giving warnings
Surely, what you are promised will come to pass
So when the stars are put out
and the sky is torn apart
and the mountains are blown away
and the messengers’ time ˹to testify˺ comes up—
for which Day has all this been set
For the Day of ˹Final˺ Decision
And what will make you realize what the Day of Decision is
Woe on that Day to the deniers
Did We not destroy earlier disbelievers
And We will make the later disbelievers follow them
This is how We deal with the wicked
Woe on that Day to the deniers
Did We not create you from a humble fluid
placing it in a secure place
until an appointed time
We ˹perfectly˺ ordained ˹its development˺. How excellent are We in doing so
Woe on that Day to the deniers
Have We not made the earth a lodging
for the living and the dead
and placed upon it towering, firm mountains, and given you fresh water to drink
Woe on that Day to the deniers
˹The disbelievers will be told,˺ “Proceed into that ˹Fire˺ which you used to deny
Proceed into the shade ˹of smoke˺ which rises in three columns
providing neither coolness nor shelter from the flames
Indeed, it hurls sparks ˹as big˺ as huge castles
and ˹as dark˺ as black camels.”
Woe on that Day to the deniers
On that Day they will not ˹be in a position to˺ speak
nor will they be permitted to offer excuses
Woe on that Day to the deniers
˹They will be told by Allah,˺ “This is the Day of ˹Final˺ Decision: We have gathered you along with earlier disbelievers ˹for punishment˺
So if you have a scheme ˹to save yourselves˺, then use it against Me.”
Woe on that Day to the deniers
Indeed, the righteous will be amid ˹cool˺ shade and springs
and any fruit they desire
˹They will be told,˺ “Eat and drink happily for what you used to do.”
Surely this is how We reward the good-doers
˹But˺ woe on that Day to the deniers
“Eat and enjoy yourselves for a little while, ˹for˺ you are truly wicked.”
Woe on that Day to the deniers
When it is said to them, “Bow down ˹before Allah,” they do not bow
Woe on that Day to the deniers
So what message after this ˹Quran˺ would they believe in
