The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 And when the stars shall fall; 2 And when the hills are moved, 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together; 5 and when the seas are set on fire, 6 when the souls shall be coupled, 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 For what sin she was killed 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 And when the sky is stripped away 11 And when the hell is kindled up, 12 And when Paradise shall be brought near, 13 Every soul shall (then) know what it has prepared. 14 So, I call the receding stars to witness, 15 Moving swiftly and hiding themselves, 16 by the night when it approaches 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 18 Truly, this is the word brought by a noble messenger, 19 having power, with the Lord of the Throne secure, 20 Obeyed one; then trustworthy. 21 Your companion is not mad. 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 He (Muhammad) is not accused of lying about the unseen. 24 Nor is it the word of a satan accursed. 25 So whither do you stray? 26 This is nothing but a Reminder to the worlds, 27 To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight, 28 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds. 29
