The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
When the sun is wound up; 1 when the stars shall be thrown down, 2 The mountains made to move, 3 And when the camels are left untended, 4 and when all beasts are gathered together, 5 And when the seas rise, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 And when the girl-child who was buried alive is asked. 8 for what crime she had been slain, 9 When the ledgers are laid open, 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 And when Hell-fire shall be kindled to fierce ablaze. 12 And when the Garden is brought nigh, 13 (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil). 14 So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede, 15 orbiting, disappearing; 16 by the night when it approaches 17 And the breath of morning 18 Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 The one who is obeyed, and trustworthy. (Other angels obey angel Jibreel). 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 And indeed he saw him on the clear horizon. (Prophet Mohammed saw Angel Jibreel in his true shape – peace and blessings be upon them). 23 And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen. 24 Nor is it the word of a satan accursed. 25 Where then are you going? 26 This is nothing but a Reminder to the worlds, 27 For whoever wills among you to take a right course. 28 But you cannot will it unless God, the Lord of the Universe, so wills it [to show you that way]. 29
