The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun is overthrown, 1 when the stars are thrown down, 2 And when the mountains are made to pass away, 3 And when the camels big with young are abandoned, 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 when the seas are set boiling, 6 And when the souls are paired 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 For what sin she was killed? 9 and when the scrolls [of men's deeds] are unfolded, 10 And when the heaven is torn away. 11 And when the Scorch shall be made to blaze, 12 when Paradise shall be brought nigh, 13 (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil). 14 So, I call the receding stars to witness, 15 Those that run [their courses] and disappear - 16 And by the night as it departs; 17 And by oath of the morning when it takes birth. 18 Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger, 19 Owner of strength, of established dignity with the Lord of the Throne. 20 obeyed, moreover trusty. 21 And (O people) your companion (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is not a madman; 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 And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen. 24 And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. 25 Whither then will you go? 26 It is naught but a reminder for the nations, 27 For the one among you who wishes to become upright. 28 However, you will not be able to choose anything unless God, Lord of the Universe wills it to be so. 29
