81 Takwir-The Overthrowing Flashcards
إِذَا ٱلشَّمۡسُ كُوِّرَتۡ
When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness]
وَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ ٱنكَدَرَتۡ
And when the stars fall, dispersing,
وَإِذَا ٱلۡجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتۡ
And when the mountains are removed
وَإِذَا ٱلۡعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتۡ
And when full-term she-camels are neglected
وَإِذَا ٱلۡوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتۡ
And when the wild beasts are gathered
وَإِذَا ٱلۡبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتۡ
And when the seas are filled with flame
وَإِذَا ٱلنُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتۡ
And when the souls are paired
وَإِذَا ٱلۡمَوۡءُۥدَةُ سُئِلَتۡ
And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked
بِأَىِّ ذَنۢبٍ قُتِلَتۡ
For what sin she was killed
وَإِذَا ٱلصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتۡ
And when the pages are made public
وَإِذَا ٱلسَّمَآءُ كُشِطَتۡ
And when the sky is stripped away
وَإِذَا ٱلۡجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتۡ
And when Hellfire is set ablaze
وَإِذَا ٱلۡجَنَّةُ أُزۡلِفَتۡ
And when Paradise is brought near,
عَلِمَتۡ نَفۡسٌ مَّآ أَحۡضَرَتۡ
A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].
فَلَآ أُقۡسِمُ بِٱلۡخُنَّسِ
So I swear by the retreating stars -
