At-Takwir
إِذَا ٱلشَّمۡسُ كُوِّرَتۡ
When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up;
وَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ ٱنكَدَرَتۡ
When the stars fall, losing their lustre;
وَإِذَا ٱلۡجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتۡ
When the mountains vanish (like a mirage);
وَإِذَا ٱلۡعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتۡ
When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended;
وَإِذَا ٱلۡوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتۡ
When the wild beasts are herded together (in the human habitations);
وَإِذَا ٱلۡبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتۡ
When the oceans boil over with a swell;
وَإِذَا ٱلنُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتۡ
When the souls are sorted out, (being joined, like with like);
وَإِذَا ٱلۡمَوۡءُۥدَةُ سُئِلَتۡ
When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned -
بِأَيِّ ذَنۢبٖ قُتِلَتۡ
For what crime she was killed;
وَإِذَا ٱلصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتۡ
When the scrolls are laid open;
