The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 And when the stars fall down. 2 when the mountains shall be set in motion, 3 and when she-camels big with young, about to give birth, are left untended, 4 and when all beasts are gathered together, 5 the oceans are brought to a boil, 6 When the souls are sorted out, (being joined, like with like); 7 and when the girl-child that was buried alive is made to ask 8 for what sin she was killed, 9 When the ledgers are laid open, 10 when heaven shall be stripped off; 11 When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat; 12 and Paradise is brought near, 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 I swear by the receding stars, 15 Who move straight and stop. 16 The closing night, 17 and the morning when it extends, 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 one mighty and held in honour with the Lord of the Throne; 20 [the word] of one to be heeded, and worthy of trust! 21 Your companion is not one possessed: 22 he truly beheld him [the angel] on the clear horizon. 23 Nor of the unseen is he a tenacious concealer. 24 Nor is it the word of a satan accursed. 25 Where then will you go? 26 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, 27 (With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight: 28 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds. 29
