The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
When the sunlight is rolled up. 1 when the stars shall be thrown down, 2 And when the mountains are made to pass away, 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 And when the seas shall be filled, 6 And when the souls are paired. 7 when the buried female infant is asked 8 For what sin she was killed? 9 And when the pages are laid open, 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 when Hell is set ablaze, 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 [on that Day] every human being will come to know what he has prepared [for himself]. 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 Those that run [their courses] and disappear - 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 and the morning when it extends, 18 Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 there he is obeyed and held trustworthy. 21 And (O people!) your companion is not one possessed; 22 And of a truth he saw himself on the clear horizon. 23 He (Muhammad) is not accused of lying about the unseen. 24 And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. 25 So where are you going? 26 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, 27 for whosoever of you would go straight, 28 But you cannot will it unless God, the Lord of the Universe, so wills it [to show you that way]. 29
