The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun shall be wound round, 1 the stars are made to fade away, 2 and when the mountains are moved, 3 when the ten-months pregnant camels shall be abandoned, 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 the oceans are brought to a boil, 6 And when the souls he paired, 7 and when the girl-child buried alive shall be asked: 8 For what crime she was killed; 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 And when the heaven shall be stripped off and taken away from its place; 11 When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat; 12 And when the garden is brought nigh, 13 (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready. 14 I swear by the receding stars. 15 Who move straight and stop. 16 by the night swarming, 17 And by the morning when it shineth forth, 18 Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger, 19 endowed with power and held in honour by the Lord of the Throne -- 20 One (to be) obeyed, and faithful in trust. 21 Your companion is not mad. 22 And of a truth he saw himself on the clear horizon. 23 and he is not one to begrudge others the knowledge [of whatever has been revealed to him] out of that which is beyond the reach of human Perception. 24 Nor is it the word of the cursed Shaitan, 25 Where then will you go? 26 This is a reminder for all the peoples of the world, 27 For the one among you who wishes to become upright. 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
