81:2
And when the stars fall, dispersing, *Isaiah 34:4, *Matthew 24:29, *Mark 13:25, *Revelation 6:13
81:3
And when the mountains are removed *Isaiah 54:10, *Judith 16:15, *Revelation 6:14
81:4
And when full-term she-camels are neglected
81:5
And when the wild beasts are gathered
81:6
And when the seas are filled with flame
81:7
And when the souls are paired
81:8
And when the infant girl [who was] buried alive is asked
81:9
For what sin she was killed
81:10
And when the Scriptures are made public *2 Ezra 6:20
81:11
And when the heaven is stripped away
81:12
And when Hellfire is set ablaze
81:13
And when Paradise is brought near,
81:14
A soul will [then] know what it has brought [with it].
81:15
So I swear by the retreating stars -
81:16
Those that run [their courses] and disappear -
81:17
And by the night as it closes in
81:18
And by the dawn when it breathes
81:19
[That] indeed, [the Qur'an] is a word [conveyed by] a noble messenger
81:20
[Who is] possessed of power and with the Owner of the Throne, secure [in position],
81:21
Obeyed there [in the heavens] and trustworthy.
81:22
And your companion is not [at all] mad.
81:23
And he has already seen [Gabriel] in the clear horizon.
81:24
And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen.
81:25
And [the Qur'an] is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. *~John 7:20, *~John 8:48 -49, *~John 10:20 - 21
81:27
It is not except a reminder to the worlds
81:28
For whoever wills among you to take a right course.
