[1] When the sun is covered,
[2] And when the stars darken,
[3] And when the mountains are made to pass away,
[4] And when the camels are left untended,
[5] And when the wild animals are made to go forth,
[6] And when the seas are set on fire,
[7] And when souls are united,
[8] And when the female infant buried alive is asked
[9] For what sin she was killed,
[10] And when the books are spread,
[11] And when the heaven has its covering removed,
[12] And when the hell is kindled up,
[13] And when the garden is brought nigh,
[14] Every soul shall (then) know what it has prepared.
[15] But nay! I swear by the stars,
[16] That run their course (and) hide themselves,
[17] And the night when it departs,
[18] And the morning when it brightens,
[19] Most surely it is the Word of an honored messenger,
[20] The processor of strength, having an honorable place with the Lord of the Dominion,
[21] One (to be) obeyed, and faithful in trust.
[22] And your companion is not gone mad.
[23] And of a truth he saw himself on the clear horizon.
[24] Nor of the unseen is he a tenacious concealer.
[25] Nor is it the word of the cursed Shaitan,
[26] Whither then will you go?
[27] It is naught but a reminder for the nations,
[28] For him among you who pleases to go straight.
[29] And you do not please except that Allah please, the Lord of the worlds.
