The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
WHEN THE SUN is shrouded in darkness, 1 And when the stars fall down. 2 And when the mountains shall made to pass away; 3 The ten-month pregnant female camels are abandoned, 4 and when all beasts are gathered together, 5 when the seas shall be set boiling, 6 when the souls are divided into different classes, 7 questions are asked about the baby girls buried alive, 8 for what sin she was slain, 9 When the scrolls are laid open; 10 and when heaven is laid bare, 11 hell is made to blaze, 12 And when Paradise shall be brought near, 13 Every soul will then come know what it has brought. 14 So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.) 15 the runners, the sinkers, 16 and the night as it darkly falls, 17 And the morning when it brightens, 18 That this is indeed the word of an honoured Messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 obeyed by (all creatures) and faithful to His trust. 21 Your companion (Muhammad) does not suffer from any mental illness 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 And he is not avid of the Unseen. 24 nor is it a word of an accursed Satan. 25 So where are you going? 26 It is naught but a reminder for the nations, 27 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
