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 are removed 3 when ten-month pregnant camels are left untended, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 and when the seas are set on fire, 6 when the souls shall be coupled, 7 And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was killed? 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 And when the heaven has its covering removed, 11 When Hell is set ablaze, 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 I do not need to swear by the orbiting 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 and the night as it darkly falls, 17 and the first breath of morning. 18 Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger, 19 The mighty, the honoured in the presence of the Lord of the Throne. 20 Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens). 21 Your companion is not one possessed: 22 And indeed he saw him on the clear horizon. (Prophet Mohammed saw Angel Jibreel in his true shape – peace and blessings be upon them). 23 He (Muhammad) is not accused of lying about the unseen. 24 And it is not the word of an accursed Satan; 25 So where are you going? 26 This is a reminder for all the peoples of the world, 27 So let those who want, choose the right guidance 28 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds. 29
