The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of God, 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 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 when the savage beasts shall be brought together, 5 when the seas shall be set boiling, 6 And when the souls are paired 7 questions are asked about the baby girls buried alive, 8 Upon what sin was she killed for. 9 And when the Records of Account are laid bare. 10 The curtain drawn back from the skies, 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 And when the garden is brought nigh, 13 (Then) every soul will know what it had prepared (for itself). 14 No! I swear by the slinkers, 15 Go straight, or hide; 16 and the night that falls, 17 and the morn as it breathes. 18 Truly, this is the word brought by a noble messenger, 19 Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne, 20 Obeyed there [in the heavens] and trustworthy. 21 Your companion (Muhammad) does not suffer from any mental illness 22 He had surely seen Him on the clear horizon. 23 And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen. 24 Nor is it the word of an evil spirit accursed. 25 Where then will you go? 26 Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). 27 To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight, 28 But you cannot will it unless God, the Lord of the Universe, so wills it [to show you that way]. 29
