The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
WHEN THE SUN is shrouded in darkness, 1 when the stars shall be thrown down, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 And when the wild beasts are gathered 5 and when the seas boil over, 6 And when the souls he paired, 7 and when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was slain, 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 and when heaven is laid bare, 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 then shall each person know what he has brought along. 14 I swear by the receding stars, 15 stars which are visible during the night 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 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 who is obeyed there and is worthy of trust. 21 (O people of Makkah), your companion is not mad; 22 Assuredly he beheld him in the horizon manifest. 23 And he is not avid of the Unseen. 24 Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned. 25 Whither, then, will you go? 26 It is not except a reminder to the worlds 27 for whosoever of you would go straight, 28 And ye shall not will unless it be that Allah, the Lord of the worlds, willeth. 29
