فَالعاصِفاتِ عَصفًا

And those that storm with turbulence.

وَالنّاشِراتِ نَشرًا

And those that scatter far and wide.

فَالفارِقاتِ فَرقًا

And those that differentiate distinctly.

فَالمُلقِياتِ ذِكرًا

And those that deliver a reminder.

عُذرًا أَو نُذرًا

Excusing or warning.

فَإِذَا النُّجومُ طُمِسَت

When the stars are obliterated.

وَإِذَا السَّماءُ فُرِجَت

And the sky is fractured.

وَإِذَا الجِبالُ نُسِفَت

And the mountains are blown away.

وَإِذَا الرُّسُلُ أُقِّتَت

And when the messengers’ time has been appointed.

لِأَيِّ يَومٍ أُجِّلَت

To what Day was it deferred?
