The Qur'an Sura LXXXI — THE FOLDED UP
1WHEN the sun shall be FOLDED UP,
2And when the stars shall fall,
3And when the mountains shall be set in motion,
4And when the she-camels shall be abandoned,
5And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together,
6And when the seas shall boil,
7And when souls shall be paired with their bodies,
8And when the female child that had been buried alive shall be asked
9For what crime she was put to death,
10And when the leaves of the Book shall be unrolled,
11And when the Heaven shall be stripped away,
12And when Hell shall be made to blaze,
13And when Paradise shall be brought near,
14Every soul shall know what it hath produced.
15It needs not that I swear by the stars of retrograde motions
16Which move swiftly and hide themselves away,
17And by the night when it cometh darkening on,
18And by the dawn when it brighteneth,
19That this is the word of an illustrious Messenger,
20Endued with power, having influence with the Lord of the Throne,
21Obeyed there by Angels, faithful to his trust,
22And your compatriot is not one possessed by djinn;
23For he saw him in the clear horizon:
24Nor doth he grapple with heaven's secrets,
25Nor doth he teach the doctrine of a cursed Satan.
26Whither then are ye going?
27Verily, this is no other than a warning to all creatures;
28To him among you who willeth to walk in a straight path:
29But will it ye shall not, unless as God willeth it, the Lord of the worlds.
