1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. When the sun is overthrown,

1 Itha alshshamsu kuwwirat

2 And when the stars fall,

2 Waitha alnnujoomu inkadarat

3 And when the hills are moved,

3 Waitha aljibalu suyyirat

4 And when the camels big with young are abandoned,

4 Waitha alAAisharu AAuttilat

5 And when the wild beasts are herded together,

5 Waitha alwuhooshu hushirat

6 And when the seas rise,

6 Waitha albiharu sujjirat

7 And when souls are reunited,

7 Waitha alnnufoosu zuwwijat

8 And when the girl - child that was buried alive is asked

8 Waitha almawoodatu suilat

9 For what sin she was slain,

9 Biayyi thanbin qutilat

10 And when the pages are laid open,

10 Waitha alssuhufu nushirat

11 And when the sky is torn away,

11 Waitha alssamao kushitat

12 And when hell is lighted,

12 Waitha aljaheemu suAAAAirat

13 And when the Garden is brought nigh,

13 Waitha aljannatu ozlifat

14 (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready.

14 AAalimat nafsun ma ahdarat

15 Oh, but I call to witness the planets,

15 Fala oqsimu bialkhunnasi

16 The stars which rise and set,

16 Aljawari alkunnasi

17 And the close of night,

17 Waallayli itha AAasAAasa

18 And the breath of morning

18 Waalssubhi itha tanaffasa

19 That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger,

19 Innahu laqawlu rasoolin kareemin

20 Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne,

20 Thee quwwatin AAinda thee alAAarshi makeenin

21 (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy;

21 MutaAAin thamma ameenin

22 And your comrade is not mad.

22 Wama sahibukum bimajnoonin

23 Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon.

23 Walaqad raahu bialofuqi almubeeni

24 And he is not avid of the Unseen.

24 Wama huwa AAala alghaybi bidaneenin

25 Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned.

25 Wama huwa biqawli shaytanin rajeemin

26 Whither then go ye ?

26 Faayna tathhaboona

27 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation,

27 In huwa illa thikrun lilAAalameena

28 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight.

28 Liman shaa minkum an yastaqeema

29 And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation.

29 Wama tashaoona illa an yashaa Allahu rabbu alAAalameena
