The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun Kuwwirat (wound round and lost its light and is overthrown). 1 When the stars fall, losing their lustre; 2 And when the mountains shall made to pass away; 3 when the pregnant camels are neglected, 4 and when all beasts are gathered together, 5 When the oceans boil over with a swell; 6 souls are reunited with their bodies, 7 And the little girl buried alive is asked 8 Upon what sin was she killed for. 9 And when the pages are made public 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 When Hell is set ablaze, 12 And Paradise brought near, 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 The planets withdrawing into themselves, 16 And the Night as it dissipates; 17 And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;- 18 it is indeed the word of an Honorable Messenger, 19 Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy; 21 Your Companion is not mad, 22 And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] in the clear horizon (towards the east). 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 So where are you going? 26 That is but an advice to the entire creation! 27 For those of you who desire to walk the path that is straight, 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
