And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt [i.e., praise] Him a long [part of the] night.

By those [winds] sent forth in gusts

And the winds that blow violently

And [by] the winds that spread [clouds]

And those [angels] who bring criterion

And those [angels] who deliver a message

As justification or warning,

Indeed, what you are promised is to occur.

And when the heaven is opened

And when the mountains are blown away

And when the messengers' time has come...

For what Day was it postponed?

For the Day of Judgement.

Then We will follow them with the later ones.

Thus do We deal with the criminals.

Woe, that Day, to the deniers.
