Surah Al-Qaari'a

ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿١﴾

1The Striking Calamity -

مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿٢﴾

2What is the Striking Calamity?

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿٣﴾

3And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?

يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ ﴿٤﴾

4It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,

وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ ﴿٥﴾

5And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.

فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ﴿٦﴾

6Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],

فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍۢ رَّاضِيَةٍۢ ﴿٧﴾

7He will be in a pleasant life.

وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ﴿٨﴾

8But as for one whose scales are light,

فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌۭ ﴿٩﴾

9His refuge will be an abyss.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ ﴿١٠﴾

10And what can make you know what that is?

نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ ﴿١١﴾

11It is a Fire, intensely hot.
