The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
When the sun shall be folded up, 1 And when the stars fall, dispersing, 2 And when the mountains are removed 3 the young barren camels are abandoned, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 And when the seas shall become as blazing Fire or shall overflow; 6 And when the souls he paired, 7 when the buried infant shall be asked 8 For what sin she was slain. 9 When the ledgers are laid open, 10 and when Heaven is laid bare; 11 And when Hellfire is set ablaze 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 (Then) every soul will know what it had prepared (for itself). 14 No indeed; I swear by the alternating stars 15 And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves, 16 And the Night as it dissipates; 17 and the morn as it softly breathes: 18 truly this is the word of a noble Messenger 19 of power, given a rank by the Owner of the Throne 20 Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens). 21 Your Companion is not mad, 22 he truly beheld [the angel - beheld] him on the clear horizon; 23 He is not chary of making public what is unknown. 24 And it (the Quran) is not the word of the outcast Shaitan (Satan). 25 When whither go ye? 26 This is naught but an admonition unto the worlds 27 For whoever wills among you to take a right course. 28 However, you will not be able to choose anything unless God, Lord of the Universe wills it to be so. 29
