The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness] 1 And when the stars shall dart down, 2 and when the mountains are made to vanish, 3 when the pregnant camels shall be neglected, 4 And when wild animals are herded together. 5 when the seas shall be set boiling, 6 And when the souls are paired 7 And when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 And when the pages are made public 10 when heaven shall be stripped off; 11 and Hell is stoked, 12 And when the garden is brought nigh, 13 Every soul shall (then) know what it has prepared. 14 I do not need to swear by the orbiting 15 That run their course (and) hide themselves, 16 by the night when it approaches 17 The rising dawn, 18 That this is indeed the word of an honoured Messenger, 19 [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], 20 Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens). 21 Nor is your companion distracted. 22 he truly beheld him [the angel] on the clear horizon. 23 And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen. 24 Nor is it the word of a satan accursed. 25 Whither then go ye? 26 It is naught but a Reminder unto all beings, 27 for whosoever of you who would go straight; 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
