The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
Allah - beginning with the name of - the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 and when the stars lose their light, 2 the mountains are scattered about as dust, 3 When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended; 4 and when all beasts are gathered together, 5 When the oceans surge and swell, 6 And when the souls are paired. 7 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked 8 Upon what sin was she killed for. 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 And when the sky is torn away, 11 And when the hell is kindled up, 12 and Paradise brought nigh: 13 then shall each person know what he has brought along. 14 Oh, but I call to witness the planets, 15 Go straight, or hide; 16 and the night as it darkly falls, 17 And the breath of morning 18 that the Quran is the word of the honorable angelic, mighty Messenger 19 [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], 20 The one who is obeyed, and trustworthy. (Other angels obey angel Jibreel). 21 Your companion is not possessed; 22 And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] in the clear horizon (towards the east). 23 he is not grudging of the Unseen. 24 And it is not the word of an accursed Satan; 25 Where then are you going? 26 This is certainly the guidance for all (jinn and mankind). 27 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. 28 And what will you wish, except if Allah wills – the Lord of the Creation. 29
