The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
When the sun is wound up; 1 And when the stars shall dart down, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 when the savage beasts are gathered 5 And when the seas are filled with flame 6 when the souls are divided into different classes, 7 and when the girl-child buried alive shall be asked: 8 such as, "For what crime were they murdered?" 9 And when the Writs shall be lain open, 10 And when the heaven is torn away. 11 when Hell is set ablaze, 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 Then every soul will know what it had prepared for itself. 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 18 Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger, 19 having power, with the Lord of the Throne secure, 20 obeyed, moreover trusty. 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 He certainly saw him (Gabriel) high up on the horizon in his original form 23 he is not niggardly of the Unseen. 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 For him among you who pleases to go straight. 28 And you will not, unless (it be) that Allah wills, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). 29
