The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 And when the stars shall fall; 2 And when the mountains shall be made to pass away, 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 And when the seas rise, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 and when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was slain. 9 And when the books are spread, 10 When the world on High is unveiled; 11 when Hell is set ablaze, 12 and when paradise is brought into view: 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede, 15 The stars which rise and set, 16 And the close of night, 17 And the breath of morning 18 That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger, 19 [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], 20 obeyed, moreover trusty. 21 And (O people!) your companion is not one possessed; 22 in truth he saw him (Gabriel) on the clear horizon, 23 and he is not one to begrudge others the knowledge [of whatever has been revealed to him] out of that which is beyond the reach of human Perception. 24 And it is not the word of an accursed Satan; 25 Whither then go ye? 26 Verily this is no less than a Message to (all) the Worlds: 27 to every one of you who wishes to tread the straight path. 28 And you will not, unless (it be) that Allah wills, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). 29
