The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 And when the stars fall down. 2 and when the mountains are moved, 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 and when the seas boil over, 6 When souls are reunited (with the bodies) 7 questions are asked about the baby girls buried alive, 8 for what sin she was slain, 9 and when the scrolls [of men's deeds] are unfolded, 10 And when the heaven shall be stripped off and taken away from its place; 11 And when Hell-fire shall be kindled to fierce ablaze. 12 And Paradise brought near, 13 (Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward. 14 So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.) 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 And by oath of the night when it turns back. 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 18 Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger, 19 one mighty and held in honour with the Lord of the Throne; 20 Obeyed one; then trustworthy. 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 he truly beheld him [the angel] on the clear horizon. 23 And he is of the unseen not a tenacious concealer. 24 The Quran is not the word of condemned satan. 25 Where to are you then heading? 26 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation, 27 To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight, 28 But ye shall not will except as Allah wills,- the Cherisher of the Worlds. 29
