[81.1] When the sun (with its spacious light) is folded up;

[81.2] When the stars fall, losing their lustre;

[81.3] When the mountains vanish (like a mirage);

[81.4] When the she-camels, ten months with young, are left untended;

[81.5] When the wild beasts are herded together (in the human habitations);

[81.6] When the oceans boil over with a swell;

[81.7] When the souls are sorted out, (being joined, like with like);

[81.8] When the female (infant), buried alive, is questioned -

[81.9] For what crime she was killed;

[81.10] When the scrolls are laid open;

[81.11] When the world on High is unveiled;

[81.12] When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat;

[81.13] And when the Garden is brought near;-

[81.14] (Then) shall each soul know what it has put forward.

[81.15] So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede,

[81.16] Go straight, or hide;

[81.17] And the Night as it dissipates;

[81.18] And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;-

[81.19] Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger,

[81.20] Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne,

[81.21] With authority there, (and) faithful to his trust.

[81.22] And (O people!) your companion is not one possessed;

[81.23] And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon.

[81.24] Neither doth he withhold grudgingly a knowledge of the Unseen.

[81.25] Nor is it the word of an evil spirit accursed.

[81.26] When whither go ye?

[81.27] Verily this is no less than a Message to (all) the Worlds:

[81.28] (With profit) to whoever among you wills to go straight:

[81.29] But ye shall not will except as Allah wills,- the Cherisher of the Worlds.
