# Translation Ayah
1 Al-Qari'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection), الْقَارِعَةُ
2 What is the striking (Hour)? مَا الْقَارِعَةُ
3 And what will make you know what the striking (Hour) is? وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْقَارِعَةُ
4 It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about, يَوْمَ يَكُونُ النَّاسُ كَالْفَرَاشِ الْمَبْثُوثِ
5 And the mountains will be like carded wool, وَتَكُونُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ الْمَنفُوشِ
6 Then as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be heavy, فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ
7 He will live a pleasant life (in Paradise). فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
8 But as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be light, وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَازِينُهُ
9 He will have his home in Hawiyah (pit, i.e. Hell). فَأُمُّهُ هَاوِيَةٌ
10 And what will make you know what it is? وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا هِيَهْ
11 (It is) a hot blazing Fire! نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌ
