It's a triple-massing shadow! Wow!

Surah al-Mursalat (77:30)

Pickthall Yusuf Ali Shakir Sher Ali
Depart unto the shadow falling threefold, Depart ye to a Shadow (of smoke ascending) in three columns, Walk on to the covering having three branches, `Aye, move on towards a three-pronged shadow,
Hilali/Khan Rashad Khalifa A.J. Arberry J.M. Rodwell
Depart you to a shadow (of Hell-fire smoke ascending) in three columns, Go to a shade of three different densities. Depart to a triple-massing shadow Begone to the shadows that lie in triple masses;

The variety of guesses in these translations reveals only that there is no revelation, just confusion what to make of this meaningless composition of words.
