The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
When the sun is wound up; 1 when the stars are thrown down, 2 and when the mountains are made to vanish, 3 when the ten-months pregnant camels shall be abandoned, 4 And when wild animals are herded together. 5 And when the seas are filled with flame 6 And when the souls he paired, 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 For what crime she was killed; 9 And when the pages are made public 10 when heaven shall be stripped off; 11 hell is made to blaze, 12 And when Paradise is brought near. 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede, 15 the runners, the sinkers, 16 and sit during the day, or by the darkening night 17 and the first breath of morning. 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 (in position) with the Lord and Master of the Throne, 20 there he is obeyed and held trustworthy. 21 Your Companion is not mad, 22 he truly saw him on the clear horizon; 23 He is not avid of the Unseen. 24 And it (the Quran) is not the word of the outcast Shaitan (Satan). 25 Where then will you go? 26 Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). 27 for everyone of you who wishes to follow the Straight Way; 28 But ye shall not will except as Allah wills,- the Cherisher of the Worlds. 29
