The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
When the sun is covered, 1 And when the stars fall, 2 The mountains made to move, 3 when ten-month pregnant camels are left untended, 4 and when all beasts are gathered together, 5 the oceans are brought to a boil, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 and when the girl-child buried alive shall be asked: 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 And when the books are spread, 10 when heaven is stripped, 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 And when the Garden is brought nigh, 13 Every soul will then come to know what it has brought. 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 the runners, the sinkers, 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 And by oath of the morning when it takes birth. 18 This is indeed the recitation of an honoured Noble Messenger, Angel Jibreel - peace and blessings be upon him. 19 Full of power, well-established with the Lord and Master of the Throne, 20 who is obeyed there and is worthy of trust. 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 And of a truth he saw himself on the clear horizon. 23 he is not grudging of the Unseen. 24 And the Qur'an is not the recitation of Satan the outcast. 25 Whither then go ye? 26 This [message] is no less than a reminder to all mankind 27 for whosoever of you would go straight, 28 but will you shall not, unless God wills, the Lord of all Being. 29
