1 When the sun is covered,

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

2 And when the stars darken,

2 And when the stars fall,

3 And when the mountains are made to pass away,

3 And when the hills are moved,

4 And when the camels are left untended,

4 And when the camels big with young are abandoned,

5 And when the wild animals are made to go forth,

5 And when the wild beasts are herded together,

6 And when the seas are set on fire,

6 And when the seas rise,

7 And when souls are united,

7 And when souls are reunited,

8 And when the female infant buried alive is asked

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

9 For what sin she was killed,

9 For what sin she was slain,

10 And when the books are spread,

10 And when the pages are laid open,

11 And when the heaven has its covering removed,

11 And when the sky is torn away,

12 And when the hell is kindled up,

12 And when hell is lighted,

13 And when the garden is brought nigh,

13 And when the Garden is brought nigh,

14 Every soul shall (then) know what it has prepared.

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

15 But nay! I swear by the stars,

15 Oh, but I call to witness the planets,

16 That run their course (and) hide themselves,

16 The stars which rise and set,

17 And the night when it departs,

17 And the close of night,

18 And the morning when it brightens,

18 And the breath of morning

19 Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger,

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

20 The processor of strength, having an honorable place with the Lord of the Dominion,

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

21 One (to be) obeyed, and faithful in trust.

21 (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy;

22 And your companion is not gone mad.

22 And your comrade is not mad.

23 And of a truth he saw himself on the clear horizon.

23 Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon.

24 Nor of the unseen is he a tenacious concealer.

24 And he is not avid of the Unseen.

25 Nor is it the word of the cursed Shaitan,

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

26 Whither then will you go?

26 Whither then go ye ?

27 It is naught but a reminder for the nations,

27 This is naught else than a reminder unto creation,

28 For him among you who pleases to go straight.

28 Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight.

29 And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds.

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