The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 When the stars fall, losing their lustre; 2 The mountains made to move, 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 when the savage beasts shall be mustered, 5 and when the seas are set on fire, 6 And when the souls are paired 7 And the little girl buried alive is asked 8 for what sin she was killed, 9 when the scrolls shall be unrolled, 10 and when heaven is laid bare, 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 And when the Garden is brought near;- 13 (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready. 14 So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.) 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 And by the night when it departeth, 17 and the morn as it softly breathes: 18 Verily this is the word of a noble message-bearer; 19 Full of power, well-established (in position) with the Lord and Master of the Throne, 20 [the word] of one to be heeded, and worthy of trust! 21 And your companion is not [at all] mad. 22 Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon. 23 And he is of the unseen not a tenacious concealer. 24 And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. 25 Where then are you going? 26 This is merely a reminder to all mankind; 27 To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight, 28 And what will you wish, except if Allah wills – the Lord of the Creation. 29
