التكوير

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

1 When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness]

2 And when the stars fall,

2 And when the stars fall, dispersing,

3 And when the hills are moved,

3 And when the mountains are removed

4 And when the camels big with young are abandoned,

4 And when full - term she - camels are neglected

5 And when the wild beasts are herded together,

5 And when the wild beasts are gathered

6 And when the seas rise,

6 And when the seas are filled with flame

7 And when souls are reunited,

7 And when the souls are paired

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

8 And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked

9 For what sin she was slain,

9 For what sin she was killed

10 And when the pages are laid open,

10 And when the pages are made public

11 And when the sky is torn away,

11 And when the sky is stripped away

12 And when hell is lighted,

12 And when Hellfire is set ablaze

13 And when the Garden is brought nigh,

13 And when Paradise is brought near,

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

14 A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].

15 Oh, but I call to witness the planets,

15 So I swear by the retreating stars -

16 The stars which rise and set,

16 Those that run [their courses] and disappear -

17 And the close of night,

17 And by the night as it closes in

18 And the breath of morning

18 And by the dawn when it breathes

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

19 [That] indeed, the Qur'an is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger

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

20 [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position],

21 (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy;

21 Obeyed there [in the heavens] and trustworthy.

22 And your comrade is not mad.

22 And your companion is not [at all] mad.

23 Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon.

23 And he has already seen Gabriel in the clear horizon.

24 And he is not avid of the Unseen.

24 And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen.

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

25 And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens].

26 Whither then go ye ?

26 So where are you going?

27 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation,

27 It is not except a reminder to the worlds

28 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight.

28 For whoever wills among you to take a right course.

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

29 And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds.
