Yusuf Ali
When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up;
Yusuf Ali
When the stars fall, losing their lustre;
Yusuf Ali
When the mountains vanish (like a mirage);
Yusuf Ali
When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended;
Yusuf Ali
When the wild beasts are herded together (in the human habitations);
Yusuf Ali
When the oceans boil over with a swell;
Yusuf Ali
When the souls are sorted out, (being joined, like with like);
Yusuf Ali
When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned -
Yusuf Ali
For what crime she was killed;
Yusuf Ali
When the scrolls are laid open;
Yusuf Ali
When the world on High is unveiled;
Yusuf Ali
When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat;
Yusuf Ali
And when the Garden is brought near;-
Yusuf Ali
(Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward.
Yusuf Ali
So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede,
Yusuf Ali
Go straight, or hide;
Yusuf Ali
And the Night as it dissipates;
Yusuf Ali
And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;-
Yusuf Ali
Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger,
Yusuf Ali
Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne,
