It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about.

Yawma yakoonu alnnasu kaalfarashi almabthoothi
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,

Then as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be heavy,
তখন যাহার পাল্লা ভারি হইবে,
Faamma man thaqulat mawazeenuhu

সে তো লাভ করিবে সন্তোষজনক জীবন।
Fahuwa fee AAeeshatin radiyatin

And what will make you know what it is?
তুমি কি জান উহা কী?

(It is) a fiercely blazing Fire!
উহা অতি উত্তপ্ত অগ্নি।
