The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
(On the day) when the sun is made to cease shining, 1 The stars turn dim and scatter, 2 When the mountains vanish (like a mirage); 3 when ten-month pregnant camels are left untended, 4 When the wild beasts are herded together (in the human habitations); 5 And when the seas rise, 6 And when souls are united, 7 And when the girl-child that was buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was killed 9 when the scrolls shall be unrolled, 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 And when hell is further enflamed. 12 and Paradise is brought near, 13 Then every soul shall know that which it hath presented. 14 I swear by the receding stars, 15 That run their course (and) hide themselves, 16 and sit during the day, or by the darkening night 17 And by the dawn as it brightens; 18 [That] indeed, the Qur'an is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger 19 The processor of strength, having an honorable place with the Lord of the Dominion, 20 [the word] of one to be heeded, and worthy of trust! 21 Your companion is not one possessed: 22 And indeed he saw him on the clear horizon. (Prophet Mohammed saw Angel Jibreel in his true shape – peace and blessings be upon them). 23 He (Muhammad) is not accused of lying about the unseen. 24 And it (the Quran) is not the word of the outcast Shaitan (Satan). 25 Whither then go ye? 26 This is certainly the guidance for all (jinn and mankind). 27 So let those who want, choose the right guidance 28 but will you shall not, unless God wills, the Lord of all Being. 29
