بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ﴿٠﴾
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿١﴾
The terrible calamity!
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿٢﴾
What is the terrible calamity!
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ﴿٣﴾
And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is?
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ ﴿٤﴾
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ ﴿٥﴾
And the mountains shall be as loosened wool.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ﴿٦﴾
Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy,
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ ﴿٧﴾
He shall live a pleasant life.
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ﴿٨﴾
And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light,
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ ﴿٩﴾
His abode shall be the abyss.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ ﴿١٠﴾
And what will make you know what it is?
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ ﴿١١﴾
A burning fire.
