مَا ٱلۡقَارِعَةُ 2
What is the Striking Calamity?
وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلۡقَارِعَةُ 3
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
يَوۡمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلۡفَرَاشِ ٱلۡمَبۡثُوثِ 4
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,[1975]
[1975] The people will be as such after having been expelled from their graves.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلۡجِبَالُ كَٱلۡعِهۡنِ ٱلۡمَنفُوشِ 5
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.[1976]
[1976] i.e., beginning to disintegrate.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتۡ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ 6
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٖ رَّاضِيَةٖ 7
He will be in a pleasant life.
وَأَمَّا مَنۡ خَفَّتۡ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ 8
But as for one whose scales are light,
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٞ 9
His refuge[1977] will be an abyss.[1978]
[1977] Literally, "mother" (a man's original refuge) , which will envelop him as in an embrace.
[1978] i.e., the pit of Hellfire.
وَمَآ أَدۡرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهۡ 10
And what can make you know what that is?
نَارٌ حَامِيَةُۢ 11
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
