The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
When the sun is folded up, 1 The stars turn dim and scatter, 2 And when the mountains shall be made to pass away, 3 And when the camels are left untended, 4 And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together; 5 and when the seas are set on fire, 6 souls are reunited with their bodies, 7 when the buried female infant is asked 8 for what crime she was slain, 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 and when Hell is set ablaze, 12 and when paradise is brought into view: 13 then shall each person know what he has brought along. 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 stars which are visible during the night 16 And the Night as it dissipates; 17 And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;- 18 That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger, 19 [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], 20 The one who is obeyed, and trustworthy. (Other angels obey angel Jibreel). 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 Assuredly he beheld him in the horizon manifest. 23 He is not chary of making public what is unknown. 24 Nor is this the word of a stoned satan. 25 Then where are you going? 26 Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). 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
