The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun is wound up; 1 and when the stars lose their light, 2 The mountains made to move, 3 when the pregnant camels shall be neglected, 4 when the savage beasts shall be brought together, 5 when the seas shall be set boiling, 6 When souls are reunited (with the bodies) 7 and when the girl-child buried alive shall be asked: 8 for what sin she was slain, 9 when the scrolls are unrolled, 10 When the world on High is unveiled; 11 hell is made to blaze, 12 And when the Garden is brought near;- 13 then shall a soul know what it has produced. 14 But nay! I swear by the stars, 15 the planets that run their course and set, 16 And by the night as it closes in 17 and the morn as it softly breathes: 18 Verily it is a Word brought by a messenger honoured, 19 Full of power, well-established (in position) with the Lord and Master of the Throne, 20 One (to be) obeyed, and faithful in trust. 21 Your companion (Muhammad) does not suffer from any mental illness 22 He certainly saw him (Gabriel) high up on the horizon in his original form 23 And he is of the unseen not a tenacious concealer. 24 Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned. 25 where then are you going? 26 It is nothing but Good Counsel for everyone in the world, 27 For him among you who pleases to go straight. 28 However, you will not be able to choose anything unless God, Lord of the Universe wills it to be so. 29
