سُورَةُ القَارِعَةِ
Al-Qaari'a • The Calamity
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ1
The Striking Calamity -
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ2
What is the Striking Calamity?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ3
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ4
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ5
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ6
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍۢ رَّاضِيَةٍۢ7
He will be in a pleasant life.
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ8
But as for one whose scales are light,
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌۭ9
His refuge will be an abyss.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ10
And what can make you know what that is?
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ11
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
