Al-Mursalat opens with oaths by the winds sent forth and builds toward the Day of Decision, driving its warning home with a refrain repeated ten times: 'Woe, that Day, to the deniers.' Between the warnings it asks: did We not create you from a liquid disdained, and make the earth a container for the living and the dead?
Al-Mursalat (المرسلات) means "The Emissaries" in English. It is chapter 77 of the Holy Quran.
Surah Al-Mursalat has 50 verses (ayat). It appears on pages 580 to 581 of the mushaf.
Surah Al-Mursalat is a Makki surah, revealed in Makkah before the Prophet's ﷺ migration to Madinah.
