The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 when the stars are thrown down, 2 when the mountains shall be set in motion, 3 when the ten-months pregnant camels shall be abandoned, 4 And when the wild beasts are herded together, 5 And when the seas shall become as blazing Fire or shall overflow; 6 And when the souls are paired 7 And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 and when the scrolls of (men's) deeds shall be unfolded, 10 when heaven is stripped, 11 and when Hell is set ablaze, 12 And when the garden is brought nigh, 13 (Then) every soul will know what it had prepared (for itself). 14 So, I call the receding stars to witness, 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 And by the night as it departs; 17 and the morn as it softly breathes: 18 Truly, this is the word brought by a noble messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 who is obeyed there and is worthy of trust. 21 And your companion is not insane. 22 he truly saw him on the clear horizon; 23 And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen. 24 Nor is this the word of an outcast devil. 25 Where to are you then heading? 26 Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). 27 for whosoever of you who would go straight; 28 but will you shall not, unless God wills, the Lord of all Being. 29
