When the sun will be rolled, (i.e., folded; compressed)
And when the stars will be turbid
And when the mountains will be made to travel
And when the (she-camels) ten-months with young are untended
And when the savage beasts will be mustered
And when the seas will be seething
And when the (inner) selves will be paired, (i.e., joined to their bodies
And when the female infant buried alive will be asked
For whichever guilty deed she was killed
And when the Scrolls will be unrolled
And when the heaven will be scraped off
And when the Hell-Fire will be set blazing
And when the Garden will be drawn within reach
(Then) a self will know whatever it has presented
Then no! swear by the constant sinkers
The running "stars", the constant sinkers
And by the night when it darkens, (Or: swarms
And by the morning when it breathes
Surely it is indeed the Saying of an honorable Messenger (The Angel Jibril "Gabriel"
Owning power, established in the Providence of The Owner of the Throne
Obeyed there, (and) devoted
And in no ay is your companion (The Prophet) a madman
And indeed he (The Prophet) already saw him (The Angle Jibril "Gabriel") on the evident horizon
And in no way is he reluctant with the Unseen (i.e., the Prophet saw Jibril)
And in no way is it the saying of an outcast Shaytan (Ever-vicious "one", i.e., devil
Where then are you (The pronoun is plural) going
Decidedly it is nothing except a Remembrance to the world
For whomever of you who decides to go straight
And in no way can you decide except "when" Allah "so" decides, The Lord of the worlds
