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.
