The Striking Disaster!

مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ ٢

What is the Striking Disaster?



101:3

And what will make you realize what the Striking Disaster is?



101:4
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ ٤

˹It is˺ the Day people will be like scattered moths,



101:5
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ ٥

and the mountains will be like carded wool.

وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ ٨

And as for those whose scale is light,



101:9
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌۭ ٩

their home will be the abyss.

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ ١٠

And what will make you realize what that is?



101:11
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ ١١

˹It is˺ a scorching Fire.
