The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun Kuwwirat (wound round and lost its light and is overthrown). 1 And when the stars shall fall; 2 And when the hills are moved, 3 And when the camels are left untended, 4 And when the wild beasts are gathered 5 when the seas shall be set boiling, 6 And when the souls he paired, 7 when the buried infant shall be asked 8 for what sin she was killed, 9 When the ledgers are laid open, 10 when heaven is stripped, 11 and when the blazing fire [of hell] is kindled bright, 12 and when paradise is brought into view: 13 (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil). 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 And by the night when it departeth, 17 and the morning when it extends, 18 that the Quran is the word of the honorable angelic, mighty Messenger 19 who is honored in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 Obeyed and worthy there of trust. 21 And your companion is not [at all] mad. 22 he truly saw him on the clear horizon; 23 he is not niggardly of the Unseen. 24 nor is it a word of an accursed Satan. 25 Whither then go ye? 26 It is naught but a Reminder unto all beings, 27 For those of you who desire to walk the path that is straight, 28 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds. 29
