Sorah At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Verses Number 29

إِذَا الشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ ( 1 )

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

وَإِذَا النُّجُومُ انكَدَرَتْ ( 2 )

When the stars fall, losing their lustre;

وَإِذَا الْجِبَالُ سُيِّرَتْ ( 3 )

When the mountains vanish (like a mirage);

وَإِذَا الْعِشَارُ عُطِّلَتْ ( 4 )

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

وَإِذَا الْوُحُوشُ حُشِرَتْ ( 5 )

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

وَإِذَا الْبِحَارُ سُجِّرَتْ ( 6 )

When the oceans boil over with a swell;

وَإِذَا النُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ ( 7 )

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

وَإِذَا الْمَوْءُودَةُ سُئِلَتْ ( 8 )

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

بِأَيِّ ذَنبٍ قُتِلَتْ ( 9 )

For what crime she was killed;

وَإِذَا الصُّحُفُ نُشِرَتْ ( 10 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 10

When the scrolls are laid open;

وَإِذَا السَّمَاءُ كُشِطَتْ ( 11 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 11

When the world on High is unveiled;

وَإِذَا الْجَحِيمُ سُعِّرَتْ ( 12 )

When the Blazing Fire is kindled to fierce heat;

وَإِذَا الْجَنَّةُ أُزْلِفَتْ ( 13 )

And when the Garden is brought near;-

عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَّا أَحْضَرَتْ ( 14 )

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

فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِالْخُنَّسِ ( 15 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 15

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

الْجَوَارِ الْكُنَّسِ ( 16 )

Go straight, or hide;

وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا عَسْعَسَ ( 17 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 17

And the Night as it dissipates;

وَالصُّبْحِ إِذَا تَنَفَّسَ ( 18 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 18

And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness;-

إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلُ رَسُولٍ كَرِيمٍ ( 19 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 19

Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger,

ذِي قُوَّةٍ عِندَ ذِي الْعَرْشِ مَكِينٍ ( 20 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 20

Endued with Power, with rank before the Lord of the Throne,

مُّطَاعٍ ثَمَّ أَمِينٍ ( 21 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 21

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

وَمَا صَاحِبُكُم بِمَجْنُونٍ ( 22 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 22

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

وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ بِالْأُفُقِ الْمُبِينِ ( 23 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 23

And without doubt he saw him in the clear horizon.

وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى الْغَيْبِ بِضَنِينٍ ( 24 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 24

Neither doth he withhold grudgingly a knowledge of the Unseen.

وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَانٍ رَّجِيمٍ ( 25 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 25

Nor is it the word of an evil spirit accursed.

فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ ( 26 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 26

When whither go ye?

إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِّلْعَالَمِينَ ( 27 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 27

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

لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ ( 28 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 28

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

وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ ( 29 )

At-Takwir ( The Overthrowing ) - Ayaa 29

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

The Bible led me to IslamThis book is a compilation of excerpts from several books addressing Christianity that I had the pleasure of reading before and after I became a Muslim. After becoming a Muslim, I continued to read books about Christianity because the "skin" of Christianity was hard to cast off after 28 years in the religion; years that almost led me to becoming the minister of an African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) church In Great Falls, Montana.
