The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun shall be folded up, 1 And when the stars fall down. 2 when the mountains shall be set in motion, 3 And when the camels big with young are abandoned, 4 And when wild animals are herded together. 5 When the oceans surge and swell, 6 When souls are reunited (with the bodies) 7 and when the female infant buried alive is asked 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 And when the heaven is torn away. 11 when Hell shall be set blazing, 12 And when the Garden shall be brought nigh, 13 then shall each person know what he has brought along. 14 So by oath of those that revolve. (The planets.) 15 The stars which rise and set, 16 And by oath of the night when it turns back. 17 and the morning when it extends, 18 Verily this is the word of a noble message-bearer; 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 Obeyed and worthy there of trust. 21 And your companion is not insane. 22 And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] in the clear horizon (towards the east). 23 And this Prophet is not miserly upon the hidden. (Allah gave the knowledge of the hidden to the Holy Prophet – peace and blessings be upon him.) 24 Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned. 25 Whither then go ye? 26 This is nothing but a Reminder to the worlds, 27 to every one of you who wishes to tread the straight path. 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
