The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
When the sun is wound up; 1 And when the stars darken, 2 when the mountains shall be set in motion, 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 the wild beasts are herded together, 5 And when the seas are filled with flame 6 when the souls are coupled (to their body), 7 questions are asked about the baby girls buried alive, 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 is set ablaze, 12 when Paradise is brought close: 13 then, each soul shall know what it has produced. 14 No! I swear by the slinkers, 15 Who move straight and stop. 16 And by the night as it closes in 17 by the dawn sighing, 18 Verily this is the word of a noble message-bearer; 19 who is honored in the presence of the Lord of the Throne, 20 Obeyed and worthy there of trust. 21 Your companion (Muhammad) does not suffer from any mental illness 22 in truth he saw him (Gabriel) on the clear horizon, 23 nor does he grudge (conveying this knowledge about) the Unseen; 24 And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. 25 So whither do you stray? 26 This is naught but an admonition unto the worlds 27 To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight, 28 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. 29
