The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 and when the stars lose their light, 2 And when the mountains shall made to pass away; 3 And when the camels are left untended, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 And when the seas are set afire. 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked 8 For what crime she was killed; 9 And when the pages are laid open, 10 When the world on High is unveiled; 11 And when hell is further enflamed. 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready. 14 I swear by the receding stars, 15 The stars which rise and set, 16 and the night that falls, 17 And by the dawn as it brightens; 18 Verily this is the word of a noble message-bearer; 19 who is honored in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 One (to be) obeyed, and faithful in trust. 21 And (O people!) your companion is not one possessed; 22 he truly saw him on the clear horizon; 23 And he is not avid of the Unseen. 24 And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. 25 Where to are you then heading? 26 That is but an advice to the entire creation! 27 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. 28 And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation. 29
