The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up; 1 And when the stars fall, dispersing, 2 the mountains are scattered about as dust, 3 when ten-month pregnant camels are left untended, 4 when the savage beasts shall be mustered, 5 And when the seas shall be filled, 6 souls are reunited with their bodies, 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 Upon what sin was she killed for. 9 And when the Writs shall be lain open, 10 the heavens are unveiled, 11 hell is made to blaze, 12 and Paradise brought nigh: 13 Every soul will then come know what it has brought. 14 So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede, 15 Go straight, or hide; 16 And the Night as it dissipates; 17 and brightening morning, 18 that the Quran is the word of the honorable angelic, mighty Messenger 19 of power, given a rank by the Owner of the Throne 20 Obeyed and worthy there of trust. 21 And (O people) your companion (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is not a madman; 22 in truth he saw him (Gabriel) on the clear horizon, 23 Neither doth he withhold grudgingly a knowledge of the Unseen. 24 This is not the utterance of an accursed devil. 25 So whither do you stray? 26 This is certainly the guidance for all (jinn and mankind). 27 for everyone of you who wishes to follow the Straight Way; 28 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds. 29
