The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
When the sun shall be folded up, 1 when the stars shall scatter away, 2 when the mountains shall be set moving, 3 And when the camels big with young are abandoned, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 When souls are reunited (with the bodies) 7 when the buried infant shall be asked 8 for what sin she was slain, 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 when heaven shall be stripped off; 11 and when the blazing fire [of hell] is kindled bright, 12 And when the Garden is brought nigh, 13 A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it]. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves, 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 And the morning when it brightens, 18 that the Quran is the word of the honorable angelic, mighty Messenger 19 The processor of strength, having an honorable place with the Lord of the Dominion, 20 Obeyed one; then trustworthy. 21 Nor is your companion distracted. 22 And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon. 23 and he is not one to begrudge others the knowledge [of whatever has been revealed to him] out of that which is beyond the reach of human Perception. 24 nor is it a word of an accursed Satan. 25 So where are you going? 26 This [message] is no less than a reminder to all mankind 27 For him among you who pleases to go straight. 28 And ye shall not will unless it be that Allah, the Lord of the worlds, willeth. 29
