The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun is covered, 1 when the stars are thrown down, 2 And when the mountains are driven. 3 And when the camels big with young are abandoned, 4 when the savage beasts shall be brought together, 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 and when all human beings are coupled [with their deeds,] 7 And when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 And when the written pages of deeds (good and bad) of every person shall be laid open; 10 And when the heaven shall be stripped, 11 and when Hell is set ablaze, 12 And when the Garden is brought near;- 13 (Then) every soul will know what it had prepared (for itself). 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 The planets withdrawing into themselves, 16 And by oath of the night when it turns back. 17 by the dawn sighing, 18 That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger, 19 endowed with power and held in honour by the Lord of the Throne -- 20 obeyed, and honest. 21 Your companion is not one possessed: 22 Assuredly he beheld him in the horizon manifest. 23 he is not grudging of the Unseen. 24 Nor is this the word of an outcast devil. 25 Whither then will you go? 26 It is naught but a Reminder unto all beings, 27 for whosoever of you would go straight, 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
