Original and translation
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
The Calamity!
The อาหรับ (อุษมานี) edition prefixes the text of 1:1 to this verse (counted as a verse of its own only at 1:1) · อังกฤษ (Pickthall 1930) has none — left as they are
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
What is the Calamity?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is!
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly-scattered moths
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
And the mountains will become as carded wool.
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
He will live a pleasant life.
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
But as for him whose scales are light,
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
Raging Fire.
