At-Takwir
The Overthrowing
إِذَا ٱلشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ ١
When the sun is wrapped up [in darkness]
وَإِذَا ٱلنُّجُومُ ٱنكَدَرَتْ ٢
And when the stars fall, dispersing,
وَإِذَا ٱلْجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتْ ٣
And when the mountains are removed
وَإِذَا ٱلْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْ ٤
And when full-term she-camels are neglected
وَإِذَا ٱلْوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ ٥
And when the wild beasts are gathered
وَإِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتْ ٦
And when the seas are filled with flame
وَإِذَا ٱلنُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ ٧
And when the souls are paired
وَإِذَا ٱلْمَوْءُۥدَةُ سُئِلَتْ ٨
And when the girl [who was] buried alive is asked
بِأَىِّ ذَنۢبٍۢ قُتِلَتْ ٩
For what sin she was killed
وَإِذَا ٱلصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتْ ١٠
And when the pages are made public
