| | M. M. Pickthall rendition of Surah The Overthrowing, The Cessation(at-Takwir) --- |
---|
81:1 | | When the sun is overthrown |
81:2 | | And when the stars fall |
81:3 | | And when the hills are moved |
81:4 | | And when the camels big with young are abandoned |
81:5 | | And when the wild beasts are herded together |
81:6 | | And when the seas rise |
81:7 | | And when souls are reunited |
81:8 | | And when the girl-child that was buried alive is aske |
81:9 | | For what sin she was slain |
81:10 | | And when the pages are laid open |
81:11 | | And when the sky is torn away |
81:12 | | And when hell is lighted |
81:13 | | And when the Garden is brought nigh |
81:14 | | (Then) every soul will know what it hath made ready |
81:15 | | Oh, but I call to witness the planets |
81:16 | | The stars which rise and set |
81:17 | | And the close of night |
81:18 | | And the breath of mornin |
81:19 | | That this is in truth the word of an honoured messenger |
81:20 | | Mighty, established in the presence of the Lord of the Throne |
81:21 | | (One) to be obeyed, and trustworthy |
81:22 | | And your comrade is not mad |
81:23 | | Surely he beheld Him on the clear horizon |
81:24 | | And he is not avid of the Unseen |
81:25 | | Nor is this the utterance of a devil worthy to be stoned |
81:26 | | Whither then go ye |
81:27 | | This is naught else than a reminder unto creation |
81:28 | | Unto whomsoever of you willeth to walk straight |
81:29 | | And ye will not, unless (it be) that Allah willeth, the Lord of Creation |
