| 1 | When the sun Kuwwirat (wound round and lost its light and is overthrown ).
| |
| 2 | And when the stars shall fall;
| |
| 3 | And when the mountains shall made to pass away;
| |
| 4 | And when the pregnant she-camels shall be neglected;
| |
| 5 | And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together;
| |
| 6 | And when the seas shall become as blazing Fire or shall overflow;
| |
| 7 | And when the souls shall be joined with their bodies;
| |
| 8 | And when the female (infant) buried alive (as the pagan Arabs used to do) shall be questioned.
| |
| 9 | For what sin she was killed?
| |
| 10 | And when the written pages of deeds (good and bad) of every person shall be laid open;
| |
| 11 | And when the heaven shall be stripped off and taken away from its place;
| |
| 12 | And when Hell-fire shall be kindled to fierce ablaze.
| |
| 13 | And when Paradise shall be brought near,
| |
| 14 | (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil).
| |
| 15 | So verily, I swear by the planets that recede (i.e. disappear during the day and appear during the night).
| |
| 16 | And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves,
| |
| 17 | And by the night as it departs;
| |
| 18 | And by the dawn as it brightens;
| |
| 19 | 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)).
| |
| 20 | Owner of power, and high rank with (Allah) the Lord of the Throne,
| |
| 21 | Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens).
| |
| 22 | And (O people) your companion (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is not a madman;
| |
| 23 | And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him (Jibrael (Gabriel)) in the clear horizon (towards the east).
| |
| 24 | And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen.
| |
| 25 | And it (the Quran) is not the word of the outcast Shaitan (Satan).
| |
| 26 | Then where are you going?
| |
| 27 | Verily, this (the Quran) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the Alameen (mankind and jinns) .
| |
| 28 | To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight,
| |
| 29 | And you will not, unless (it be) that Allah wills, the Lord of the Alameen (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
