The Striking Calamity -
The terrible calamity!
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم القارعة
What is the Striking Calamity?
What is the terrible calamity!
ما القارعة
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is?
وما أدراك ما القارعة
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,
يوم يكون الناس كالفراش المبثوث
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
And the mountains shall be as loosened wool.
وتكون الجبال كالعهن المنفوش
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy,
فأما من ثقلت موازينه
He will be in a pleasant life.
He shall live a pleasant life.
فهو في عيشة راضية
But as for one whose scales are light,
And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light,
وأما من خفت موازينه
His refuge will be an abyss.
His abode shall be the abyss.
فأمه هاوية
And what can make you know what that is?
And what will make you know what it is?
وما أدراك ما هيه
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
A burning fire.
نار حامية
