In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

 1. I swear by the wind that scatters far and wide,

 2. Then those clouds bearing the load (of minute things in 
 space).

 3. Then those (ships) that glide easily,

 4. Then those (angels who) distribute blessings by Our 
 command;

 5. What you are threatened with is most surely true,

 6. And the judgment must most surely come about.

 7. 1 swear by the heaven full of ways.

 8. Most surely you are at variance with each other in what 
 you say,

 9. He is turned away from it who would be turned away.

 10. Cursed be the liars,

 11. Who are in a gulf (of ignorance) neglectful;

 12. They ask: When is the day of judgment?

 13. (It is) the day on which they shall be tried at the 
 fire.

 14. Taste your persecution! this is what.you would hasten 
 on.

 15. Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in 
 gardens and fountains.

 16. Taking what their Lord gives them; surely they were 
 before that, the doers of good.

 17. They used to sleep but little in the night.

 18. And in the morning they asked forgiveness.

 19. And in their property was a portion due to him who begs 
 and to him who is denied (good).

 20. And in the earth there are signs for those who are sure,

 21. And in your own souls (too); will you not then see?

 22. And in the heaven is your sustenance and what you are 
 threatened with.

 23. And by the Lord of the heavens and the earth! it is most 
 surely the truth, just as you do speak.

 24. Has there come to you information about the honored 
 guests of Ibrahim?

 25. When they entered upon him, they said: Peace. Peace, 
 said he, a strange people.

 26. Then he turned aside to his family secretly and brought 
 a fat (roasted) calf,

 27. So he brought it near them. He said: What! will you not 
 eat?

 28. So he conceived in his mind a fear on account of them. 
 They said: Fear not. And they gave him the good news of a 
 boy possessing knowledge.

 29. Then his wife came up in great grief, and she struck her 
 face and said: An old barren woman!

 30. They said: Thus says your Lord: Surely He is the Wise, 
 the Knowing.

 31. He said: What is your affair then, O messengers!

 32. They said: Surely we are sent to a guilty people,

 33. That we may send down upon them stone of clay,

 34. Sent forth from your Lord for the extravagant.

 35. Then We brought forth such as were therein of the 
 believers.

 36. But We did not find therein save a (single) house of 
 those who submitted (the Muslims).

 37. And We left therein a sign for those who fear the 
 painful punishment.

 38. And in Musa: When We sent him to Firon with clear 
 authority.

 39. But he turned away with his forces and said: A magician 
 or a mad man.

 40. So We seized him and his hosts and hurled them into the 
 sea and he was blamable.

 41. And in Ad: When We sent upon them the destructive wind.

 42. It did not leave aught on which it blew, but it made it 
 like ashes.

 43. And in Samood: When it was said to them: Enjoy 
 yourselves for a while.

 44. But they revolted against the commandment of their Lord, 
 so the rumbling overtook them while they saw.

 45. So they were not able to rise up, nor could they defend 
 themselves-

 46 And the people of Nuh before, surely they were a 
 transgressing people.

 47. And the heaven, We raised it high with power, and most 
 surely We are the makers of things ample.

 48. And the earth, We have made it a wide extent; how well 
 have We then spread (it) out.

 49. And of everything We have created pairs that you may be 
 mindful.

 50. Therefore fly to Allah, surely I am a plain warner to 
 you from Him.

 51. And do not set up with Allah another god: surely I am a 
 plain warner to you from Him.

 52. Thus there did not come to those before them an apostle 
 but they said: A magician or a mad man.

 53. Have they charged each other with this? Nay! they are an 
 inordinate people.

 54. Then turn your back upon them for you are not to blame;

 55. And continue to remind, for surely the reminder profits 
 the believers.

 56. And I have not created the jinn and the men except that 
 they should serve Me.

 57. 1 do not desire from them any sustenance and I do not 
 desire that they should feed Me.

 58. Surely Allah is the Bestower of sustenance, the Lord of 
 Power, the Strong.

 59. So surely those who are unjust shall have a portion like 
 the portion of their companions, therefore let them not ask 
 Me to hasten on.

 60. Therefore woe to those who disbelieve because of their 
 day which they are threatened with.
