The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
When the sun shall be wound round, 1 The stars turn dim and scatter, 2 when the mountains shall be set in motion, 3 when ten-month pregnant camels are left untended, 4 And when the wild beasts are gathered 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 when the souls shall be rejoined (with their bodies), 7 And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked 8 for what crime she had been slain, 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 when the sky is unveiled, 11 And when the Scorch shall be made to blaze, 12 And when the Garden is brought near;- 13 Then every soul shall know that which it hath presented. 14 So I swear by the retreating stars - 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 and the night as it darkly falls, 17 and brightening morning, 18 Verily it is a Word brought by a messenger honoured, 19 who is honored in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 obeyed, moreover trusty. 21 Your companion is not possessed; 22 He certainly saw him (Gabriel) high up on the horizon in his original form 23 he is not grudging of the Unseen. 24 Nor is this [message] the word of any satanic force accursed. 25 So where are you going? 26 It is not except a reminder to the worlds 27 For the one among you who wishes to become upright. 28 but your wishing will not avail unless Allah, the Lord of the Universe, so wishes. 29
