The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
When the sunlight is rolled up. 1 And when the stars fall, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 When souls are reunited (with the bodies) 7 and when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 such as, "For what crime were they murdered?" 9 And when the Writs shall be lain open, 10 the heavens are unveiled, 11 And when the Scorch shall be made to blaze, 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 (Then) every soul will know what it had prepared (for itself). 14 I do not need to swear by the orbiting 15 Go straight, or hide; 16 And the night when it departs, 17 And by oath of the morning when it takes birth. 18 That this is indeed the word of an honoured Messenger, 19 having power, with the Lord of the Throne secure, 20 Obeyed and worthy there of trust. 21 Your companion (Muhammad) does not suffer from any mental illness 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 Nor of the unseen is he a tenacious concealer. 24 Nor is it the word of the cursed Shaitan, 25 So where are you going? 26 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, 27 So let those who want, choose the right guidance 28 And what will you wish, except if Allah wills – the Lord of the Creation. 29
