Surah Al-Mursalat: Those Sent Forth

Revealed at Makkah



With the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Rewarding


77:1
NO! I call to witness this Territory!—


77:2
and you have lawful rights in this Territory,


77:3
and the begetter, and whom he has begotten.


77:4
We have certainly created man into hardship.


77:5
Does he think that no one has power over him?


77:6
He says: “I have spent heaps of wealth.”


77:7
Does he think that no one sees him?


77:8
Have We not made for him two eyes,


77:9
and a tongue and two lips,


77:10
and pointed out to him the two highways?


77:11
But he does not rush ahead to the uphill road;


77:12
and what will make you know what the uphill road is?


77:13
The freeing of a captive,


77:14
or the feeding in the days of famine—


77:15
an orphan of near relation,


77:16
or a poor lying in dust.


77:17
Then he is of those who believe, and enjoin one another to perseverance and enjoin one another to mercy.


77:18
These are the companions of the Right-hand.


77:19
But as to those who disbelieve in Our Messages, they are the fellows of the Left-hand.


77:20
On them will be a Fire vaulted over.
