101. al-Qari`ah: The Terrible Calamity

1 The Calamity!

2 What is the Calamity ?

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

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

5 And the mountains will become as carded wool.

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

7 He will live a pleasant life.

8 But as for him whose scales are light,

9 A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,

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

11 Raging Fire.
