The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun Kuwwirat (wound round and lost its light and is overthrown). 1 And when the stars shall dart down, 2 And when the mountains shall made to pass away; 3 the young barren camels are abandoned, 4 And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together, 5 And when the seas are set afire. 6 And when souls are reunited, 7 And when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was killed, 9 When the scrolls are laid open; 10 And when the heaven shall be stripped off and taken away from its place; 11 hell is made to blaze, 12 And when Paradise is brought near, 13 A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it]. 14 I do not need to swear by the orbiting 15 That run their course (and) hide themselves, 16 and the night that falls, 17 and the morn as it softly breathes: 18 Verily this is the word of a noble message-bearer; 19 Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 The one who is obeyed, and trustworthy. (Other angels obey angel Jibreel). 21 Your companion is not possessed; 22 And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon. 23 he is not niggardly of the Unseen. 24 nor is it a word of an accursed Satan. 25 Where then will you go? 26 Verily this is no less than a Message to (all) the Worlds: 27 For those of you who desire to walk the path that is straight, 28 And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation. 29
