The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up; 1 And when the stars shall dart down, 2 And when the mountains are driven. 3 And when the camels are left untended, 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 and when the seas boil over, 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked 8 For what sin she was killed 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 And when the sky is stripped away 11 when Hell shall be set blazing, 12 and when paradise is brought into view: 13 (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil). 14 No! I swear by the slinkers, 15 that hide, 16 and the night that falls, 17 And by the morning when it shineth forth, 18 truly this is the word of a noble Messenger 19 Owner of power, and high rank with (Allah) the Lord of the Throne, 20 One (to be) obeyed, and faithful in trust. 21 (O people of Makkah), your companion is not mad; 22 he indeed saw the message-bearer on the clear horizon; 23 he is not niggardly of the Unseen. 24 Nor is this [message] the word of any satanic force accursed. 25 So where are you going? 26 It is naught but a Reminder unto all beings, 27 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight. 28 And you will not, unless (it be) that Allah wills, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). 29
