The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Dispenser of Grace
When the sun is wound up; 1 when the stars shall be thrown down, 2 the mountains are scattered about as dust, 3 when the ten-months pregnant camels shall be abandoned, 4 when the savage beasts are gathered 5 And when the seas shall be filled, 6 And when the souls he paired, 7 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 When the world on High is unveiled; 11 And when hell is further enflamed. 12 And when the garden is brought nigh, 13 then every soul will discover the consequence of its deeds. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 The stars which rise and set, 16 and sit during the day, or by the darkening night 17 And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;- 18 That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger, 19 of power, given a rank by the Owner of the Throne 20 Obeyed one; then trustworthy. 21 Your companion (Muhammad) does not suffer from any mental illness 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 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 it the word of a satan accursed. 25 So where are you going? 26 This is naught but an admonition unto the worlds 27 to everyone of you who wills to walk a straight way. 28 But you cannot will it unless God, the Sustainer of all the worlds, wills [to show you that way]. 29
