The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 when the stars shall scatter away, 2 When the mountains vanish (like a mirage); 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 and when the seas boil over, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 And the little girl buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was killed, 9 when the records of men's deeds are laid open, 10 And when the sky is torn away, 11 and Hell is stoked, 12 and Paradise is brought near, 13 (Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward. 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves, 16 and the night as it darkly falls, 17 And by the morning when it shineth forth, 18 truly this is the word of a noble Messenger 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 there he is obeyed and held trustworthy. 21 Nor is your companion distracted. 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 nor does he grudge (conveying this knowledge about) the Unseen; 24 nor is it a word of an accursed Satan. 25 When whither go ye? 26 This is nothing but a Reminder to the worlds, 27 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. 28 But ye shall not will except as Allah wills,- the Cherisher of the Worlds. 29
