The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 when the stars shall scatter away, 2 and when the mountains are made to vanish, 3 when the pregnant camels shall be neglected, 4 The wild beasts stampede on the run, 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 when the souls shall be rejoined (with their bodies), 7 And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was killed? 9 And when the pages are laid open, 10 The curtain drawn back from the skies, 11 And when hell is further enflamed. 12 And when Paradise is brought near, 13 (Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward. 14 But nay! I swear by the stars, 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 And the night when it departs, 17 and the first breath of morning. 18 that the Quran is the word of the honorable angelic, mighty Messenger 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 [the word] of one to be heeded, and worthy of trust! 21 For, this fellow-man of yours is not a madman: 22 He certainly saw him (Gabriel) high up on the horizon in his original form 23 And he is of the unseen not a tenacious concealer. 24 Nor is this the word of a stoned satan. 25 Where to are you then heading? 26 This is a reminder for all the peoples of the world, 27 For the one among you who wishes to become upright. 28 but will you shall not, unless God wills, the Lord of all Being. 29
