The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
WHEN THE SUN is folded up, 1 the stars are made to fade away, 2 when the mountains shall be set moving, 3 The ten-month pregnant female camels are abandoned, 4 when the savage beasts are gathered 5 And when the seas are set afire. 6 And when the souls are paired. 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 for what sin she was slain, 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 hell is made to blaze, 12 And when Paradise is brought near. 13 then every soul will discover the consequence of its deeds. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 Those that run [their courses] and disappear - 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 and brightening morning, 18 Truly, this is the word brought by a noble messenger, 19 one mighty and held in honour with the Lord of the Throne; 20 The one who is obeyed, and trustworthy. (Other angels obey angel Jibreel). 21 And your companion is not gone mad. 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 He is not chary of making public what is unknown. 24 Nor is this the word of an outcast devil. 25 So where are you going? 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 you cannot will it unless God, the Sustainer of all the worlds, wills [to show you that way]. 29
