The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness] 1 when the stars shall scatter away, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 And when the wild beasts are herded together, 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 souls are reunited with their bodies, 7 And when the girl buried alive shall be asked: 8 Upon what sin was she killed for. 9 And when the Writs shall be lain open, 10 when the sky is unveiled, 11 And when the Scorch shall be made to blaze, 12 And when the garden is brought nigh, 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 The planets withdrawing into themselves, 16 and sit during the day, or by the darkening night 17 by the dawn sighing, 18 Verily, this is the Word (this Quran brought by) a most honourable messenger [Jibrael (Gabriel), from Allah to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)]. 19 Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne, 20 obeyed, and honest. 21 Your companion is not mad. 22 And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] in the clear horizon (towards the east). 23 Nor of the unseen is he a tenacious concealer. 24 This is not the utterance of an accursed devil. 25 When whither go ye? 26 That is but an advice to the entire creation! 27 for everyone of you who wishes to follow the Straight Way; 28 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds. 29
