The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up; 1 when the stars shall scatter away, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended; 4 And when wild animals are herded together. 5 And when the seas are filled with flame 6 when the souls are divided into different classes, 7 And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked 8 such as, "For what crime were they murdered?" 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 And when the sky is stripped away 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 And when the Garden is brought near;- 13 Every soul will then come know what it has brought. 14 Oh, but I call to witness the planets, 15 that hide, 16 And by oath of the night when it turns back. 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 18 Verily, this is the Word (this Quran brought by) a most honourable messenger [Jibrael (Gabriel), from Allah to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)]. 19 Full of power, well-established (in position) with the Lord and Master of the Throne, 20 [the word] of one to be heeded, and worthy of trust! 21 And your comrade is not mad. 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him 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 nor is it a word of an accursed Satan. 25 Whither, then, will you go? 26 Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). 27 For him among you who pleases to go straight. 28 but your wishing will not avail unless Allah, the Lord of the Universe, so wishes. 29
