AlqariAAatu
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم القارعة
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The Calamity!
Ma alqariAAatu
ما القارعة
What is the Calamity ?
Wama adraka ma alqariAAatu
وما أدراك ما القارعة
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is!
Yawma yakoonu alnnasu kaalfarashi almabthoothi
يوم يكون الناس كالفراش المبثوث
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly - scattered moths
Watakoonu aljibalu kaalAAihni almanfooshi
وتكون الجبال كالعهن المنفوش
And the mountains will become as carded wool.
Faamma man thaqulat mawazeenuhu
فأما من ثقلت موازينه
Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),
Fahuwa fee AAeeshatin radiyatin
فهو في عيشة راضية
He will live a pleasant life.
Waamma man khaffat mawazeenuhu
وأما من خفت موازينه
But as for him whose scales are light,
Faommuhu hawiyatun
فأمه هاوية
A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,
Wama adraka ma hiyah
وما أدراك ما هيه
Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -
Narun hamiyatun
نار حامية
Raging Fire.
