Surah At-Takwir 81
سُورَةُ التَّكۡوِيرِ“The Overthrowing”29 Ayat
- 81:1When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness]
- 81:2And when the stars fall, dispersing,
- 81:3And when the mountains are removed
- 81:4And when full-term she-camels are neglected
- 81:5And when the wild beasts are gathered
- 81:6And when the seas are filled with flame
- 81:7And when the souls are paired
- 81:8And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked
- 81:9For what sin she was killed
- 81:10And when the pages are made public
- 81:11And when the sky is stripped away
- 81:12And when Hellfire is set ablaze
- 81:13And when Paradise is brought near,
- 81:14A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].
- 81:15So I swear by the retreating stars -
- 81:16Those that run [their courses] and disappear -
- 81:17And by the night as it closes in
- 81:18And by the dawn when it breathes
- 81:19[That] indeed, the Qur'an is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger
- 81:20[Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position],
- 81:21Obeyed there [in the heavens] and trustworthy.
- 81:22And your companion is not [at all] mad.
- 81:23And he has already seen Gabriel in the clear horizon.
- 81:24And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen.
- 81:25And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens].
- 81:26So where are you going?
- 81:27It is not except a reminder to the worlds
- 81:28For whoever wills among you to take a right course.
- 81:29And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds.
