The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
WHEN THE SUN is shrouded in darkness, 1 and when the stars lose their light, 2 when the mountains shall be set moving, 3 And when milch camels roam abandoned. 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 When the oceans surge and swell, 6 souls are reunited with their bodies, 7 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was slain. 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 when the sky is unveiled, 11 when Hell is set ablaze, 12 And when Paradise is brought near. 13 Every soul shall (then) know what it has prepared. 14 Oh, but I call to witness the planets, 15 That run their course (and) hide themselves, 16 And by the night as it departs; 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 18 Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy; 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 he truly beheld him [the angel] on the clear horizon. 23 he is not niggardly of the Unseen. 24 The Quran is not the word of condemned satan. 25 where then are you going? 26 It is not except a reminder to the worlds 27 (With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight: 28 but you shall not, unless Allah wills, the Lord of all the Worlds. 29
