The Rolling (Al-Takweer)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
When the sun shall be darkened, 1 When the stars fall, losing their lustre; 2 And when the mountains are driven. 3 And when the she-camels big with young shall be abandoned, 4 And when the wild animals are made to go forth, 5 and when the seas boil over, 6 When souls are reunited (with the bodies) 7 When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned - 8 for what sin she was slain, 9 when the scrolls shall be unrolled, 10 And when the sky is stripped away 11 And when hell is lighted, 12 And when Paradise shall be brought near, 13 (Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward. 14 Rather, I swear by the returning 15 Moving swiftly and hiding themselves, 16 And the close of night, 17 And by the dawn as it brightens; 18 Verily, this is the Word (this Quran brought by) a most honourable messenger [Jibrael (Gabriel), from Allah to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)]. 19 [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position], 20 there he is obeyed and held trustworthy. 21 Your companion is not 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 it the word of an evil spirit accursed. 25 Then where 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 And ye shall not will unless it be that Allah, the Lord of the worlds, willeth. 29
