The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun is wound up; 1 And when the stars fall, 2 And when the mountains shall made to pass away; 3 And when milch camels roam abandoned. 4 And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together, 5 And when the seas are filled with flame 6 when the souls shall be rejoined (with their bodies), 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 for what crime she had been slain, 9 When the scrolls are laid open; 10 The curtain drawn back from the skies, 11 And when Hell-fire shall be kindled to fierce ablaze. 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil). 14 So I swear by the retreating stars - 15 the runners, the sinkers, 16 And by the night as it departs; 17 and brightening morning, 18 truly this is the word of a noble Messenger 19 endowed with power and held in honour by the Lord of the Throne -- 20 [the word] of one to be heeded, and worthy of trust! 21 Your Companion is not mad, 22 in truth he saw him (Gabriel) on the clear horizon, 23 he is not grudging of the Unseen. 24 And it is not the word of an accursed Satan; 25 where then are you going? 26 This [message] is no less than a reminder to all mankind 27 So let those who want, choose the right guidance 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
