The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 And when the stars shall dart down, 2 And when the mountains are made to pass away, 3 When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended; 4 And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together, 5 and when the seas boil over, 6 when the souls shall be coupled, 7 when the buried infant shall be asked 8 For what crime she was put to death; 9 the records of deeds are made public, 10 And when the heaven has its covering removed, 11 And when hell is lighted, 12 And Paradise brought near, 13 (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready. 14 But nay! I swear by the stars, 15 That run their course (and) hide themselves, 16 and by the night as it recedes, 17 And by the dawn when it breathes 18 it is indeed the word of an Honorable Messenger, 19 with strength endowed, secure with Him who in almightiness is enthroned 20 (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy; 21 And your companion is not gone 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 this [message] the word of any satanic force accursed. 25 Where then will you go? 26 This is naught but an admonition unto the worlds 27 So let those who want, choose the right guidance 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
