আল কারিয়া (প্রচন্ড দুর্ঘটনা)

1 The Striking Calamity -

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The Calamity!

2 What is the Striking Calamity?

2 What is the Calamity ?

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

3 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is!

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

4 A day wherein mankind will be as thickly - scattered moths

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

5 And the mountains will become as carded wool.

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

6 Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),

7 He will be in a pleasant life.

7 He will live a pleasant life.

8 But as for one whose scales are light,

8 But as for him whose scales are light,

9 His refuge will be an abyss.

9 A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,

10 And what can make you know what that is?

10 Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -

11 It is a Fire, intensely hot.

11 Raging Fire.
