The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 And when the stars fall, dispersing, 2 And when the mountains shall be made to pass away, 3 And when the pregnant she-camels shall be neglected; 4 And when the wild beasts are herded together, 5 the oceans are brought to a boil, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 when the buried infant shall be asked 8 For what sin she was killed, 9 When the scrolls are laid open; 10 And when the heaven shall be stripped, 11 When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat; 12 And when Paradise shall be brought near, 13 Every soul will then come know what it has brought. 14 So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.) 15 that hide, 16 and sit during the day, or by the darkening night 17 And the morning when it brightens, 18 truly this is the word of a noble Messenger 19 Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne, 20 obeyed, moreover trusty. 21 Your companion is not mad. 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 He is not chary of making public what is unknown. 24 Nor is this the word of a stoned satan. 25 When whither go ye? 26 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, 27 for everyone of you who wishes to follow the Straight Way; 28 And ye shall not will unless it be that Allah, the Lord of the worlds, willeth. 29
