The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
When the sun shall be folded up, 1 And when the stars darken, 2 The mountains made to move, 3 And when the camels are left untended, 4 And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together; 5 And when the seas are filled with flame 6 when the souls shall be rejoined (with their bodies), 7 when the buried infant shall be asked 8 for what offence was she killed? 9 And when the books are spread, 10 when heaven shall be stripped off; 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 and Paradise brought nigh: 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 that hide, 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 And by the dawn as it brightens; 18 Truly, this is the word brought by a noble messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens). 21 Your Companion is not mad, 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 he is not niggardly of the Unseen. 24 And the Qur’an is not the recitation of Satan the outcast. 25 Whither, then, will you go? 26 It is not except a reminder to the worlds 27 to everyone of you who wills to walk a straight way. 28 And you will not, unless (it be) that Allah wills, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). 29
