The text of Surah Al-Qaria in Arabic:
- الْقَارِعَةُ
- مَا الْقَارِعَةُ
- وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْقَارِعَةُ
- يَوْمَ يَكُونُ النَّاسُ كَالْفَرَاشِ الْمَبْثُوثِ
- وَتَكُونُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ الْمَنفُوشِ
- فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ
- فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
- وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَازِينُهُ
- فَأُمُّهُ هَاوِيَةٌ
- وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا هِيَهْ
- نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌ
Translation of Surah Al-Qaria in English:
The Day of Judgement (Al-Qaria).
What is the Day of Judgement?
And what can make you know what is the Day of Judgement?
It is the day when people will be like scattered moths,
And the mountains will be like tufts of wool.
Then as for him whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
He will be in a pleasant life.
But as for him whose scales are light,
His mother will be Hawiyah.
And what can make you know what is Hawiyah?
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
