Translation Of The Meanings Of The Glorious Quran
81-Sūrah At-Takweer
Bismillāhir-Raúmānir-Raúeem
- When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness]
- And when the stars fall, dispersing,
- And when the mountains are removed
- And when full-term she-camels are neglected
- And when the wild beasts are gathered
- And when the seas are filled with flame
- And when the souls are paired
- And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked
- For what sin she was killed
- And when the pages are made public
- And when the sky is stripped away
- And when Hellfire is set ablaze
- And when Paradise is brought near,
- A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].
- So I swear by the retreating stars –
- Those that run [their courses] and disappear –
- And by the night as it closes in
- And by the dawn when it breathes
- [That] indeed, the Qur’ān is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger
- [Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position],
- Obeyed there [in the heavens] and trustworthy.
- And your companion is not [at all] mad.
- And he has already seen Gabriel in the clear horizon.
- And Muúammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen.
- And the Qur’ān is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens].
- So where are you going?
- It is not except a reminder to the worlds
- For whoever wills among you to take a right course.
- And you do not will except that Allāh wills – Lord of the worlds.
