The Overthrowing
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
[81:1]
When the sun shall be darkened,

[81:2]
when the stars shall be thrown down,

[81:3]
when the mountains shall be set moving,

[81:4]
when the pregnant camels shall be neglected,

[81:5]
when the savage beasts shall be mustered,

[81:6]
when the seas shall be set boiling,

[81:7]
when the souls shall be coupled,

[81:8]
when the buried infant shall be asked

[81:9]
for what sin she was slain,

[81:10]
when the scrolls shall be unrolled,

[81:11]
when heaven shall be stripped off;

[81:12]
when Hell shall be set blazing,

[81:13]
when Paradise shall be brought nigh,

[81:14]
then shall a soul know what it has produced.

[81:15]
No! I swear by the slinkers,

[81:16]
the runners, the sinkers,

[81:17]
by the night swarming,

[81:18]
by the dawn sighing,

[81:19]
truly this is the word of a noble Messenger

[81:20]
having power, with the Lord of the Throne secure,

[81:21]
obeyed, moreover trusty.

[81:22]
Your companion is not possessed;

[81:23]
he truly saw him on the clear horizon;

[81:24]
he is not niggardly of the Unseen.

[81:25]
And it is not the word of an accursed Satan;

[81:26]
where then are you going?

[81:27]
It is naught but a Reminder unto all beings,

[81:28]
for whosoever of you who would go straight;

[81:29]
but will you shall not, unless God wills, the Lord of all Being.
