The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 and when the stars lose their light, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 The wild beasts stampede on the run, 5 And when the seas shall be filled, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked 8 for what crime she had been slain, 9 when the records of men's deeds are laid open, 10 And when the sky is torn away, 11 and when the blazing fire [of hell] is kindled bright, 12 And when Paradise is brought near, 13 (Then) every soul will know what it had prepared (for itself). 14 I swear by the receding stars. 15 Go straight, or hide; 16 And by oath of the night when it turns back. 17 And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;- 18 it is indeed the word of an Honorable Messenger, 19 Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 obeyed by (all creatures) and faithful to His trust. 21 And (O people) your companion (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is not a madman; 22 Assuredly he beheld him in the horizon manifest. 23 And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen. 24 And the Qur’an is not the recitation of Satan the outcast. 25 Whither then go ye? 26 This is merely a reminder to all mankind; 27 For the one among you who wishes to become upright. 28 And what will you wish, except if Allah wills – the Lord of the Creation. 29
